okay Ted...here it is from Dr. james Bowen MD "Epidemic Of Sudden Death In Those Exposed To Aspartame"

Jim Krossik was an employee at Searle's first aspartame plant in Phoenix. He developed neural toxicity from breathing the aspartame dust in the air in the plant and passed out on the plant floor. When he recovered and returned to work, he found that all employees were required to wear a facemask lest they breathe the deadly Nutra Sweet dust.

He complied, but absorbed enough through his skin that he passed out on the floor dead. The autopsy report revealed a "severe alcoholic cardiomyopathy" as its only finding. Jim used no alcoholic beverages.

This is the article I read years ago...not a "Twice Told Tale" (although aspartame probably came from Vincent Price's purple tree) http://homodiet.netfirms.com/otherssay/letters/aspartame_2.htm
