I am a bit puzzled. IIRC, the silicone in women's breast implants
would/could/did leak and cause fairly serious health problems. Yet, Dr.
Ornitz says "Silicone oils are excellent from a health standpoint" and
Mr. Smith says: "food grade".

Could anyone take a shot at explaining this apparent dichotomy?

Inquiring minds want to know.

- There are plenty of things that are inert when

- introduced directly into the body.

Yeah - You can Sallow a FMJ Bullet
and 'pass-it' quite nicely.

-fwiw- a Solid Lead Bullet might produce
different results in the 'gut'.

But that same FMJ Bullet 'passing-thru'
the Body could be very Lethal.
