R.e. MSP,  I believe this is what Rosemary Jacobs really beleives she
was using in the past;  I say this because her site mentions her efforts
to testify against MSP at some government hearings about the product.  I
believe she was working with or on behalf of Public Citizen.   Her
dedication is admirable to me.   

There is perhaps some useful data on MSP on her site;  I have not been
there in quite some time,  but it is worth reading carefully.
