Guest guest Posted October 13, 2001 Report Share Posted October 13, 2001 I have read the news reports. I also find it hard to believe that anthrax has not been here. Especially when they have to run a test several times? Is there some reason they suspect and are looking for anthrax? I just wonder how many times doctors might have seen this and just perscribed antibiotics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 21, 2009 Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 Just another rumor stemming from an unsubstantiated report about a possible batch of Kombucha in Iran that may have been contaminated. Just google it and make up your own mind. The FDA has found Kombucha safe to drink if prepared in a clean manner. If you can make a safe cup of tea, you can make a safe cup of Kombucha. Your friend will have to make up her own mind based on what you and she can research. We really don't have access to any info you, yourself cannot access. We've all heard the rumors and innuendos. We all make our own decisions. IMO... Relax!

Guest guest Posted May 22, 2009 Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 On sober reflection, if it *was* anthrax the whole world would have died of it by now. Translation .... *Rude* The " Cockneys " from a certain part of London a century or so back had a rhyming slang to confuse casual listeners. For instance if they said they were " Off up the apples " They meant " stairs " Apples and Pears = Stairs " Give us a butchers. " Butchers hook = " Look " Cobblers awls = Need I expound? Essentially, to use a politically incorrect Brit expression, " What a load of BALLS! " . http://www.cockneyrhymingslang.co.uk/ HTH . ________________________________ From: Polly Subject: Re: Anthrax?
