I wonder if "god" told him to ram aspartame through FDA regulations despite many reservations about its safety when he was a CEO at Serle. Since it has been quietly added to numerous food items it has poisoned and disabled untold millions. Civilized governents around the world have banned its use. Not here though. This potent neurotoxin has now been definitively linked with Parkinsons and other degenerative diseases affecting the central nervous system. The company got rich though. Anyone see the article linking Rumsfeld with selling Nukes to the Koreans just a short six years ago as a representative of an arms manufacturer, and then turning around and proclaiming they are part of the "axis of evil" in 2002. With a "god" like this who needs the devil? <p></p><i></i>

"Raymond Shaw"...that's some wry wit there, Hugh. Eerily insightful perhaps as well. <p></p><i></i>
