CPSC moves to take magnet toys off the market over child-safety concerns.

The AP (8/8, Lederman) reports, "A standoff between the government and sellers of desktop magnet toys for adults escalated Tuesday, with federal consumer safety officials filing their second complaint to force a company to take the potentially dangerous product off the market." As the story describes, the Consumer Product Safety Commission recently filed "an administrative complaint against Zen Magnets, a Colorado-based company that imports and markets tiny but powerful magnets that can be molded into different shapes." The CPSC maintains that the magnets present a danger to children, even though they are meant for adult use.
