Ed Miller LOL: Laugh Out Lead

Ed Miller posted a hilariously scary post today about lead in poker chips. Is this another reason to play online poker? Should we turn to the Internet to avoid lead poisoning?

The scary part first: There's lots of lead in many casino poker chips.

The hilarious part: Ed Miller's commentary:

"Anyone who’s played with these chips knows that they are all covered with a thin layer of nastiness that coats your hands after a few hours. I thought it was just general railbird funk, but apparently it’s railbird funk combined with a powder chock full of lead. Tasty."
"Don’t take the chips home and let your kids or dogs chew on them, don’t grind them up and snort them, and always make sure the filter on your gas mask is clean before coming to the cardroom."
