Every single one of these questions, and more, have been discussed at 
length on the list. It's available in the archives to anyone interested 
enough to hunt it down and read it.

Yes. Find Alterna-Tif, and install it. While you're at it, look at patent 
13960 (1855) too.

For what it's worth. Requesting scientific and/or logical support of claims 
made is not going for anyone's throat. This is supposed to be a technical, 
rather than a social list. While posted social comments are obviously fair 
game, technical claims should rightfully be expected to have some basis of 
verifiable fact. Again, if you want the history of this discussion, go to 
the archives and read it for yourself.
