In a letter to the editor and in one article published in the United States Air Force AirMen's News, it was noted that aspartame ingestion causes elevated spiking on the EEG, resulting in grand mal seizures and blackout episodes in the cockpit. Dozens have lost their jobs due to aspartame-related medical problems.
1. What is the "United States Air Force AirMen's News"?

2. The above quote appears to be extracted word-for-word from this web site offering cures and health advice having no basis in science: http://www.naturodoc.com/library/nut.../aspartame.htm
