It Was Poison!

Specifically, it was Dioxin!

"Dioxin - a contaminant found in Agent Orange- is a byproduct of industrial processes such as waste incineration and chemical and pesticide manufacturing. It is a normal contaminant in many foods, but a single high dose, usually in food, can trigger illness, London-based toxicologist John Henry said last month."

The changes in the physical appearance of Viktor Yushchenko, the Ukrainian presidential candidate, is striking. Politics sometimes takes a dramatic Shakespearian type of turn.

I have an Ukrainian student who is praying the "good guy" wins. Now I know who she was referring to!
