I also quote from an interview re this article. "The study, described at a
scientific meeting yesterday, was small and has yet to be peer reviewed or
published in a scientific journal."
This is far from scientific proof. Extrapolating this to humans is a leap
of faith not science.
This is not to say that carbon compounds aren't toxic. Coal miners lung or
chimney sweeps scrotal cancer come to mind for example. Maybe a
re-examination of the latter may cast new light on an old disease as smokey
chimneys might seem to be places where C60 could be found..
