Charlie, Camilla & list friends I was discussing aspartame with a psychiatrist friend of mine the other day. I had told him I had stopped drinking diet drinks after reading different sites on the Web. He went on to say that he and his partner were getting ready to write a paper re: aspartame and it's effects on people. So there are other people who are questioning its use. I know that I certainly do feel better now & that's all I can attest to. I hope that everyone has a very blessed holiday. Linda cg Ben 69/5 [log in to unmask]
