   Yes.  I had a fellow come around to my place to buy some automotive
   stuff I sell, and he was all pumped up on Colloidal Silver.  Had some
   very convincing-sounding pamphlets which claimed it was a natural
   antibiotic, good for a multiplicity of ills, and was a common
   disease fighter in the '30's and before "before the big drug
   companies killed its use."
   I jumped onto the web and looked up colloidal silver in a few search
   engines, and found all kinds of positive information about it, but then,
   the info was all being offered by guess who? - companies selling colloidal
   silver, of course.  That's where the web has gone these days - a few years
   ago, searching would show university sites with info on research projects
   and stuff; now everything you search turns up people trying to sell you
   something.
   Like I should talk.  Look up gas mileage, emission reduction, longer
   engine life, and you'll find my site (www.angelfire.com/biz/snwvlly)
   trying to sell stuff.  But I sell it because I found that it works,
   and hopefully this is the case with the Colloidal Silver crowd.
   One of the claims is that it's a great Candida Yeast killer.  (Can you
   say Beer Belly?)  I'm currently going through a $15.00 jar of the stuff
   to see if it can save me from another stretch of the only other 
lternative
   I've found - The Incredibly Boring Diet.
   If anyone's interested, and has no web access, I can glean some text out
   of web pages I've saved and pop some on here.  Just ask - preferably by
   netmail.
Best, ps
