	While I do not know of a comprehensive study of the type you describe,
_Consumer Reports_ did an comparison of 'regular' and organic produce an
couple of months back, evaluating various aspects, including pesticide
levels. The article may touch upon levels of lead as well, though I
don't recall it doing so.

	I'd give a more detailed report on the article were I able to lay my
hands upon my copy, but considering what passes for a filing system in
my home...
