Well maybe if we were really more informed about the processes that they 
use to make thse things then maybe we would be in a better position to 
boycott them.  I used to work as a chemist and I personally would boycott 
DuPont for the way they used to make teflon coatings.  However I don't 
know if they still do the same stuff or not.  It used to be teflon 
coating immersed in pure freon (bad for the ozone layer).  The part you 
wanted to have a teflon coating had to be dipped into the freon ....when 
freon is exposed it evaporates quickly into the atmosphere and goes 
straight to kill the ozone.  But I think they changed it a little...but I 
don't know.  I am sure DuPont doesn't want us to know anyway.
