| Feb 8, 2012 at 6:12 | comment | added | jwenting | anything you'd bring in on your shoes you could also bring in barefoot :) That said, the risks are massively overstated. There's just not enough lead dust around in an average environment to cause problems, and where there is you'd need respirators to prevent breathing it in. | |
