snowing and I am tense about the CPSC

Snow falling on the front range. I am wanting to be wrapped in blankets instead of worrying about the Febuary 10, 2009 start date for compliance with the consumer products safety commission. I am going to have to give up all of my charity knitting for children if I read this properly. Adult stuff only. (well 12 and up) This takes my kid chemo hats out of production because I can't afford to test for lead and phthalate. I am going to be sending email to my representatives and senators. I am also going to send snail mail to the CPSC small business ombudsmen. I will call and talk to the office of compliance and see how this really effects me and I will post the reply that I get.
