If you follow the links on Rosemarys website and read the reports 'in context', they tend to disprove her position. The only mention of "colloidal silver" I found was a title page of a collection of reports..NONE of which even mentioned colloidal silver..ALL of which had to do with mega doses of silver compounds..SOME of which had to do with intentionally inducing agryia... and a few who expressed extreme frustration when failing to do that reliably enough to complete the report in a timely and conclusive manner even then.
The overall impression I got was that even mega doses of silver compounds were fairly benign in most instances and that ill effects were the exception rather than the rule. Rosemary herself seems to be an exception who is being paid in some way to rule a rare roost...perhaps just by victim validation. Then there's Stan Jones....a mild case. OK, now we have 2 out of what?...hundreds and hundreds of thousands? [Except that Rosemary doesn't quite fit the same catagory that Stan does in either severity or cause] Ode At 04:32 PM 3/15/2004 -0500, you wrote: >No she took silver compounds, silver nitrate I believe it was.
