The kidneys fail first. Then the central nervous system begins to misfire. Paralysis spreads, making breathing difficult, then often impossible without assistance. In the end, most victims die.

Food poisoning is no fun whatsoever. Those of us who've had it know how true that statement is and those who haven't don't know how lucky they are.

Anyone observing Earth Day this Sunday, April 22, has to give one person credit: Rachel Carson. She was a writer and scientist who, in 1962, jolted the nation with her book "Silent Spring," which warned the public about the dangers of pesticides in general and DDT in particular.

Within hours, all six fell deathly ill. So did two dozen others from the same neighborhood. Some complained of body-wide numbness. Others had weakness in their legs. Several couldn't speak or even open their mouths.

Not even temperatures hovering below zero or a foot of snow stopped customers from trekking to Mary's Amish Market for her fruit pies and Swiss cheese. But state regulators are stopping by for another reason.

I had no sooner helped myself to a seat in Boris Berezovsky's sleek Mayfair office when he pointed out that I was sitting where Andrei Lugovoi sat the day before former Russian spy Alexander Litvinenko was poisoned late last year. That chair later tested positive for polonium 210. It's since been switched for a new one.

A woman was convicted Monday of murdering her Marine husband with arsenic so she could cash in on his $250,000 life insurance policy, which friends said she used to throw wild parties and have her breasts enlarged.
