Don't handle electric cords in California 

I bought a new digital camera the other day, the Nikon CoolPix 5700. Among all the paraphernalia and documentation that come with the camera I found a little white sticker with an ominous warning:

"For users in the State of California, U.S.A. Place the following sticker in a blank area of the product manual.

WARNING: Handling the cord on this product will expose you to lead, a chemical known to the State of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling."

I am relieved, for once, that I live in New Jersey.
