Hi Ronni, I do understand that you did not intend to incite fear, just healthy skepticism. A good thing. But I draw your attention to Reg's response: "My son is keen to try it an good luck to him, and I need to point out he has no association with WAMUG whatsoever, but in doing so perhaps he's putting the rest of his family at risk." I'm happy to be corrected by both Reg and you, however to me Reg sounds a bit spooked. If so, IMHO I believe that to be unwarranted. As I said earlier if the end user perceives benefit as weighed against the risk then a good thing has happened. If it came across as a jab I apologise, it was only intended as a nudge :-) Maybe what I could have said is; yes skepticism is a healthy thing but you did not speculate much about the potential benefits just the potential risks.
