So, I have been a skeptical person most of my life. I suppose it started when my mom used to bring question as to who assassinated JFK. She never felt that it was Oswald and that he was just a patsy.
When I watched the 2nd twin tower fall, I knew it was a planned event. The perfect demolition style demise of all (three!) of those buildings, made that fairly obvious to me.
Ever since 9/11 my eyes have become more open to the realities in our world. I appreciate this GAW group. You are all so helpful to me. I did voat and dabbled in the chans and Kun, but everyone here feels like family. A family that shares their knowledge base and are open to new people finding their way.
Thank you everyone!
With all of that said, as I learn more, it makes me reflect back on historical events and try to find new light on them. One of those events that I keep wondering about is the Tylenol Tampering Scare that happened in Chicago in the early '80's. Remember it? Totally put the American Public in a complete and utter panic about anything and everything. It changed the way the FDA did things and it certainly changed the way over the counter drugs were packaged and distributed, along with food and other consumer based products.
Nobody was ever convicted, the scare eventually went away, but it did change the way consumers got their products forever.
So, I am reaching out to all of you, either as a discussion or a group think. What was that scare all about? Was it truly the work of a serial lunatic out to destroy random lives? Or, possibly was there more to the story and there was an agenda that played into changing the American public and how the FDA allowed items to get to market?
Open dialogue welcome.
This one to me feels like a new Coke type scenario. Allegedly they made the switch to New Coke just long enough that when everyone demanded they switch back, they wouldn't realize flavor had changed from adding HFCS instead of sugar to what they switched back to.
Idk what would taste different about a pill tho.
It wouldn't be about the taste of the pill. It'd be about the alternatives to that pill, aspirin, naproxen, ibuprofen.
Tylenol has or has always been iirc acetaminophen tho rite?
As far as I know yes. Not a pharmacist or chemist though so I wouldn't know if any changes were made in the material or the processing.
