This article is 100% political. The EPA did this due to political shifts. What makes it eligible for the top spot on HN? Any detailed discussion of the politics underlying why this happened will be censored within minutes. What are we supposed to do, discuss the science of asbestos being toxic? This is a perfect example of why the "no politics" zealots on HN need to be stopped.

Last time I broke the rules I was banned. Then when I emailed asking about it I was told, "I've unkilled some of your recent comments that don't break the suite guidelines. Users can vouch for others, which also unkills them." He would not go into detail about how one user can vouch for another. Take this comment as me vouching for you :)
