Yeah, I should have emphasized that we're "dealing with" the problem. As late as 2005, Corelle was still putting lead in at least some of its dishware. But compare that to what was happening before, we're not doing nearly as much to add to the problem. Compare with years past, where we were sticking it in paint where kids would eat paint chips, in gasoline, and even as a sweetener.
