Them and I both! I certainly would have no reason to be concerned over
short-term use ( short term even being a year or two ) of such a substance,
used in reasonable quantities ( ~ 8 ounces a day, perhaps? ). I think the
real question is in long term effects, and long term effects from a certain
substance can be hard to study and pin down.

Back to basics is always a good idea with me, Terry. Often times, it is the
obvious we miss!
It is my opinion that real scientific professionals listen to everything.
That is my experience, though it doesn't come from academia. You are right,
though - finding accuracy and clear language to communicate with
professionals is always a good idea. When dealing with the "non-listening"
professionals, I know the language they speak - the language of Current and
Accepted Authority. So I try to speak that language in applicable
situations, where I can, although in truth there are more people out there
willing to listen then there are deaf and stubborn. I really prefer to
spend my time with them.

Very true!
