I'm so glad there doing something with all the incidents , I was reading a article the other day on how 150 K illegally set up factories were shut down in China last year and thats where most of the trouble is mostly coming from , anyways catfish , basa , dace , shrimp , eel are now being detained. Also in my paper today had a little article about this situation like alot of toys from China are being painted with lead paint , defective tires , toothpaste with diethylene glycol or in layman's terms toxic substance found in antifreeze , and lets not forget the dogfood/catfood incident a month or so ago. This is only the first step in this process of what needs to be done, lets all hope we get rid of this incidents from the import market ( side thought: if they didn't outsource a ton of factory's for cheaper labor this wouldn't have happen ..... thoughts on this dilemma

Well, I'm glad these chinese goods are being blocked. The only fish I eat is tuna fish, so I would be safe there.

Thats good... We need to watch more carefully what is being imported and exported to.

Of course things should have been a lot tighter since the beginning of importing. Could of saved some lives.
