Fluoride ideas are laughable
I HAVE gained many a laugh from the wild-eyed antics of the anti-fluoride lobby in its railing against a public health measure which has been proven, without exception, to provide only beneficial effects throughout the world for at least half a century. Fluoride has been present naturally in most of the worlds water supplies since before man existed. But the letter from Lola Linley (The Border Mail, December 7) broke new ground. The suggestion that the unpalatability of the water supply in parts of South Australia could be due to the addition of fluoride was absolutely hilarious. The water has been the same for at least a century. But please dont let me discourage any of you; I havent had so many laughs since the Marx brothers stopped making films.
