A new mass tort, at the cash register?

Bis-phenol A is a low-toxicity, noncarcenogenic chemical that enviroweenies have spent nearly eighty years trying to prove is bad. The chemical is two phenol molecules stuck together. We’ve been using phenol compounds for disinfection and for tissue preservation for over a century. Phenols, like many chemicals, are harmful if you drink them, splash them in your eyes, inhale their vapors within a closed space, or take a bath in them. But, outside of chemical manufacturing plants, phenols usually are diluted a lot or are present in only trace amounts (such as cash register printouts). I suppose if you licked a few hundred feet of freshly printed register paper you might get sick, but that would probably be from the ink itself.
