Thank you. Regards Jonathan P.S. Now, if you would please do me the service of telling me why on earth, after I have personally seen serious immunological harm done to my client with hepatitis by his taking colloidal silver, I should feel positive about this product. Or maybe you might just admit that the information on my website regarding this product might be accurate. I assume you did not post this negative testimonial of the product on the silver list. That would probably get you expelled. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jim Holmes" <ami...@starband.net> To: <silver-list@eskimo.com>; "'Jonathan Campbell'" <w...@cqs.com> Sent: Wednesday, December 07, 2005 3:26 PM Subject: FW: Silver Testimonials >I received the below from Jonathan Campbell. > > In order to save the list from any harassment from this person, I > apologize > for calling Jonathan Campbell, an "Asshole", without admitting any > wrongdoing in expressing that opinion. > > Jim Holmes > > -----Original Message----- > From: Jonathan Campbell [mailto:w...@cqs.com] > Sent: Saturday, December 03, 2005 9:44 AM > To: Jim Holmes > Subject: Re: Silver Testimonials > > Mr. Holmes, > > Please send me your address so that my lawyer may serve you with a > lawsuit. > (You provided ample evidence of slander in your email message to me.) > Alternatively, you may avoid legal action if you send a formal apology for > your slander to the silver listserver (and to me, obviously) and provide > evidence that you have done so. > > If you do neither of the above, I will find your address from public > records. > > Sincerely > Jonathan Campbell > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Jim Holmes" <ami...@starband.net> > To: "'Jonathan Campbell'" <w...@cqs.com> > Sent: Friday, December 02, 2005 6:04 PM > Subject: RE: Silver Testimonials > > >> Wow, this guy seems brain dead!
