I agree, great story and I am sure, based in reality. But, I like to pass on
these types of stories to my non-cs-believing
friends and they jump on any inaccuracies, as my M.D. friend did. I had
ptomaine once and looking back, sure could have
used cs if it had been available.

I have no doubt of that, botulism cannot even grow in meat that is not
totally sealed from the air, and would almost certainly caused very quick
death.  What they got was almost certainly salmonella, or ptomaine
poisoning. I have found these respond very nicely to CS.

  But that doesn't diminish the impact of the story.

     How can you sate "You need to get your head out of your ass"and then "
Bless you,  Bob Lee", they don't seem to go together.I sent your story to a
doctor (M.D.) friend who believes in alternativemeans for health and healing
and he stated "These guys have no clue about botulism....check this out"?Ane
HE sent me the medical page link to botulism. Did you check out the link?
Are you calling thatinformation page BS?At my age, and in accordance with my
personal belief system ( I don't judge), I wouldn't dare to callanyone, let
alone an ex- Navy seal, a liar unless both of my Special Ops son-in-laws
were nearby to protect me (joke).Sorry, didn't mean to offend.John
