That's the official version from Montramé. I knew Nicole well and think
her death can be possibly related to other non-official causes.

True, but may not be the deep & real cause of Nicole's cancer. And why
was she eating so much meat when so many other high-quality fruits were
there that she could eat if not for psychological compensation of other
problems ?

True for the content. I heard that insect stuff somewhere already. But I
doubt that this idea is from Burger. Easy recuperation... Never heard
this in his mouth during 6 years I stayed in Montramé. Apparently he
"invented" that story since I walked out. Dig in more and don't believe
everything you're told. Be there when it happens if you want to have the
real facts. I totally agree on the content of the idea, not on its
origin...

Cheers,

Sincerely yours. With best regards.
