I am sorry to say that I can't offer any information about fly ash, 
toxins and radiation.  I have read assertions ranging from those who 
essentially say, "you can eat it, it's good for you," to "it will 
kill you if you even think about using it."  I have not spent much 
time trying to research it, and haven't run across anything that I 
considered authoritative.  Therefore, I don't currently have an 
opinion.
