Chris, Your story about your recent bad food/tummy experience should bring back wonderful memories and belly laughs to old time CS Listers. Old-time CSers will recall the testimonial to end all testimonials on this subject which was originally posted by Bob Lee --- aka Tai Pan --- Here it is reposted once again for any new CSers who haven't read it. ---------------------------- From: Tai-Pan <l...@fbtc.net> To: silver-list@eskimo.com
Greetings Glorious Ones of CS, A Test --- DO NOT DO THIS AT HOME A few military friends of mine got together last week for the usual yak-yak about military things. The talk came around to the anthrax shots. I opened my mouth and said they wouldn`t need them if all the military were taking CS. A long discussion then went on, at the end of which we had decided to set up a real "he-man", "macho", "walk-the-walk" test. Too much cold brew can do odd things to normally intelligent people. This was not a smart thing to do, but please consider who our small group is. One was me, Tai-Pan, ex-seal from Nam, one was ex-Army Ranger Shannon from Desert Storm, and one was ex-82nd Air Borne paratrooper Richard from Bosnia. I was the oldest, they were the young guys. The test was to eat rotten meat and see if CS would prevent problems. We agreed that if anyone became ill we would wait for at least a 103 F fever before taking CS. If the CS did not work we would go to the ER at a fever of 105 F. The ER was only a few blocks away at Poly Ryan Hospital. Then we decided that one, Richard, would be the observer, and the other two would eat the rotten meat. Then we decided that one meat would be treated with CS and one not. OK, so here we go to Richard`s house and get the rotten meat that he was going to throw out. It smelled very bad and strong. Richard is bacheloring it, so what's new. We made two patties of about 1/4 lb each, hamburger size. One was put in a bowl and CS poured over it and then we kneaded in well the CS and made it into a patty again. The other one was untreated. We drew straws to see who got each patty. I got the CS one and Shannon got the untreated one. We ate them, with a little more beer to blunt the taste of them. Really macho. :-) Then we waited. After half an hour Shannon developed a stomach ache, which proceeded to get worse. He had classical symptoms of food poisoning (botulism). I did not develop any symptoms at all. Shannon's temperature began to rise so we decided to start using the CS right away at about 101.5 F. We gave Shannon four tablespoons of CS every 15 minutes for 90 minutes --1 1/2 hrs. His temperature held steady, then began dropping. We gave CS at four tablespoons every 30 minutes, and by the end of four hours he was feeling normal again. Continued CS at four tablespoons once an hour until the end of six hours just to make sure the botulism was gone. That was Saturday, now it is Monday and Shannon is still OK. The CS was 9ppm, active. So what does this prove --- besides how dumb was our dumb idea? 1. Well, the CS-treated spoiled meat was rendered safe. It demonstrated that CS might be used to treat rotten food in an emergency if need be. 2. It proved it would stop botulism. I usually take CS before eating out. 3. It proved you shouldn`t drink too much beer at any one time. 4. It convinced Richard and Shannon to start using CS. :-) Now I feel better about the youngsters and their health outlook. --- Bless you all, Bob Lee ---------------------- ----- Original Message ----- From: <loan...@aol.com> To: <silver-list@eskimo.com> Sent: Wednesday, December 20, 2000 12:30 AM Subject: CS and Tummy Bugs A few weeks ago I ate something that had been sitting out all day. Several hours later I began to get incredibly nauseaus. I was so sick to my stomach that I just wanted to die and have it be over with. Then I remembered CS. I quickly drank about 1/2 cup. Then I laid down. I heard all kinds of gurgling sound coming from my stomach. And within an hour I was fine and fell asleep. I never threw up or had any diarrhea. This isn't very scientific, but for me the CS saved me from what could have been a horrible night. Chris S -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
