Hi Tim It is unlikely that you will find 'proof' that CS does NOT cause argyria, as the few documented cases of argyria were usually the results of _long-term_ abuse of silver containing compounds. We will all have to wait thirty years or more for an overwhelming weight of anecdotal reports to amass to feel _certain_ that CS use will not result in argyria. In the meantime, for those of us users who want reassurance about the 'risk' we expose ourselves to, a 'level-headed' appraisal of the toxicology of silver (including CS) can be found here:

Suffice to say that in my personal opinion, there is sufficient argument proposed in the extract to satisfy my own doubts about the safety of my own CS use. ++++++++++++ On Thu, 20 Jul 2000 22:51:06 -0400, "Tim Eastman" <eastm...@home.com> wrote: >I know all the "how come's" but could someone please pass along some >documentable reasonings as to why CS does NOT produce Argyria or at least >point me to some medical level "White Papers" on the internet.
