"Too much of anything could hurt you; it's possible you could eat too much broccoli and die from that," said Laurie Hudson, chief executive officer of Jewelry.com, a retail Web site. "I would have a hard time believing that too much lead content in a pair of earrings or costume bracelet would destroy a life."

Has Ms. Hudson ever heard that lead is a potent neurotoxin? Broccoli, to my knowledge, is not. In Michigan and Minnesota, thousands of kids' lives have been seriously damaged by low level lead exposure.
