- The gentlemen who published the list was a lawyer from New York. The list
- contained seemingly harmless toys until he pointed out their potential danger.
- Some toys were considered dangerous because they could cause "scrapes and
- abrassions". Some of the toys were definitely dangerous, others about the same
- as a teaspoon.
-
- Using this guys criteria for dangerous I guess I should have the brick on the
- exterior of my house removed since the kids play outside and could get scrapes
- or abrassions if they brush against it.
