I don't have a reason, but the original poster in this thread is concerned
about his soil. I mentioned that things like cyanide and benzene are
going to go away on their own -- unless they are continually resupplied.
Heavy metals, on the other hand, don't break down. They may wash away,
but they won't break down.

Ray ... not trying to challenge you. I just was wondering why the OP felt
there was a need to test for heavy metals. Where I live, each type of
subtest adds significantly to the cost of the overall test. Perhaps the OP
is made of money, but I would have to have sound reason to suspect such a
problem before I popped my wallet open to pay for the test.

That's all. I was just wondering if the test was a rational thing to do.
