AW: [Histonet] Ban on Formaldehyde in Europe deadline 22SEP07

[Gudrun Lang]

Embalming is no usual procedure in Austria. Perhaps that's the cause, why
there wasn't any comment on this issue in the media. And the funeral homes
are quiet institutions....

Betreff: [Histonet] Ban on Formaldehyde in Europe deadline 22SEP07

Funny thing - I found this information in Wikipedia.com and the related 
link below.    After 22SEPT2007 it will be illegal to use formaldehyde as 
embalming fluid in Europe because of it's carcinogenic properties. 
Curious.    Anyone in Europe have a comment?
