From Wikipedia's page on Jig-A-Loo:
For environmental and health safety reasons, the State of California will ban the use of perchloroethylene and methylene chloride in multi-purpose lubricants such as Jig-A-Loo effective Dec 31, 2010 and the sale of remaining inventory will be banned effective Dec 31, 2013.

We've being idiots all along. California is banning the use of perchloroethylene in Jig-A-Loo. Jig-A-Loo will simply remove that one ingredient and replace it with a substitute.
This isn't even a matter about Jig-A-Loo; of course chemicals should be banned when we learn that they are too dangerous. New and better things will be discovered/invented to replace the banned substance.

Just keep the LMAO, LOL, ROFL, etc in the off-topic section. Thanks.

Why? People say stupid stuff in EVERY forum =D
 
Well, as of today, Jig-a-Loo has officially been banned!
Yay~...-_- ---" ->- -,-

Well, this is it. Jig-A-Loo will be banned in California effective of December 31, 2010 due to the perchloroethylene and methylene chloride in it.

From the April 2005 handbook:
The California Air Pollution Control Officers Association (CAPCOA) is developing Industry-wide Risk Assessment Guidelines for Perchloroethylene Dry Cleaners which, when published, will provide detailed information on public health risk from exposure to emissions from this source.

And here's a link to the current table of banned consumer products containing perchloroethylene, methylene chloride, and trichloroethylene:

Just a notice.
