some insurances compaines stopped insuring asbestos workers in 1918.

It is a tradegy that we kept using it to such an extent, ships, houses, space suits, cars. etc. there was no substitute product for insulation,, and probably still isn't.

In wa there are entire suburbs with asbestos houses/ fences and schools.. not to mention a town that has now been stricken off the map.

Many goldfields nickel mines have a level of asbestos contamination.. but this level is lower than being in the middle of the cdb on a calm day (or at least it was in the late 80's).
