		<description>Gary may be right about the study leading to another study, but this article gave me the connection I was looking for between the Great Lakes and healthcare reform. Basically it is that healthy lakes and healthy people go together and both our healthcare system and our lakes need help right now.</description>

		<description>At first glance this study appears to be worthy of the expense. 

But, don&#039;t we already know that PCB&#039;s are harmful and life-threatening! Might the $5 million be better spent on removing the PCB&#039;s and other toxins from our harbors, rivers, and lakes!

I also suspect that one of the results of the study will be that, more study is necessary.
