The mainstream media, and most of its viewers, thrive on cheap sensationalism. It seems the only time they delve into the morbid details is if the fodder is insured fuel for Larry King or Nancy Grace. If anything, Mr. Smurf will become an Icon on what not to do. Maybe he has a disease or medical condition that is aggravated or exasperated by the use of CS. But for its passing interest, dollars to donuts the true facts of the story will not be pursued or discovered by the media.

Smitty is right, there is no way in the world that true CS would do this - period. I found the ABC interview rather controversial as the gentleman being interviewed says he will continue to use CS but not as much! As far as the probable government involvement, they are already are. I remember an article released earlier this year or last year stating the EPA would be looking into the making and use of CS as a potential "harm" to the ecological system. So, I am not surprised as to the coverage by ABC regarding the Argyria symptoms this man caused himself. Who knows, this may lead to more interest from the public in use of CS. Go figure.

The only two people that I know of (I don't know anyone personally, but recall these two from online forums like this one) who exhibited symptoms of Argyria from 'CS' - in quotes because regardless of the fact that they *thought* they were using CS, in reality they were *not* - it turned out they were not using pure water to make their 'CS', but were deliberately adding electrolytes (sea-salt in one case, concentrace minerals in the other, if I'm not mistaken) to the water BEFORE making it - and it is well documented that using water with 'salt' in it will result in NOT CS, but in silver salt compounds that will, indeed cause argyria.
