Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB's)? I dare you to look for any study that reasonably demonstrates they are dangerous.

CDC has done at least three or them. One was done by the National Cancer Institute. Either Northwestern or U of Chicago did one based on the PCBs dumped in Waukegan harbor. It hasn't been published yet, because it's still ongoing. All of them, including the ongoing one, have found a strong correlation between PCBs and cancer.
