Steve,

There is no staff at the university continuing Ron's research. I guess I am 
the closest thing to meeting that definition, as I worked with Ron from the 
beginning on cs research. In fact, it was I who got Ron interested in this 
field of research in the first place.

The "star" rating was an overall quality metric, not just effectiveness.

The contamination criteria was chosen by Ron as being indicative of the 
quality of a commercial product. A quality commercial product should not have 
any significant contamination. If it did, that was cause to be dropped from 
further consideration. The worst offender was the living bacteria found in 
some products sold as "silver protein" or "mild silver protein".

If a home made batch of cs is contaminated, it is up to the user to decide if 
he wants to use it. As we learned from "Survivor", some folks are comfortable 
eating living bugs and other criters.
