SO I NOTICE THAT ALL OF A SUDDEN, IT SEEMS EVERY OTHER AD I’M SEEING ON TV IS FOR MESOTHELIOMA ATTORNEYS. Is there something going on with that? I thought that most of the exposure was long ago and would expect claims to be aging out.

UPDATE: Tom Maguire explains: There are new frontiers in mesothelioma! “I haven’t seen the ads (my sports viewing has made me an expert on pick-up trucks, erectile dysfunction, beer and male pattern baldness) but a new category of plaintiffs has been in the news: users of talcum powder. So they moved past legacy factory workers.”

I figured something was going on.
