Thnaks.  Well....what can I say?  The article was written by a man who grew 
up in the S. U.S. w/out fluoride in the drinking water.  He apparently 
blames his bad (really, really bad) teeth on the lack of fluoride.

Sort of makes me wonder how the rest of his family fared in their teeth: 
patents, grandparents....    Could it be that his family just had crummy 
teeth?

The article didn't have anything in it relating to science, not one study, 
no information re. the history of fluoride & why it was first put into 
drinking water, etc.

All in all, it seemed like a sad story written by someone w/ rotten teeth 
who chose to blame his situation on the lack of fluoride.
