Zanfel and its developer

The poison ivy remedy Zanfel has grossed $20 million in sales in the decade since Peoria resident William Yarbrough developed it.

For the inside tale of Zanfel, and where the money has gone (hint: politicians have enjoyed huge contributions!) see the Associated Content story.

  • Telling the truth
    "In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act." George Orwell "I found that to tell the truth is the hardest thing on earth, harder than fighting in a war, harder than taking part in a revolution." Richard Wright, 1944.
  • From the News Release
    PeoriaStory will tell the stories that likely won’t be told by the mainstream/corporate media. It will question local political candidates for their views on controversial topics. It will cover and profile off-beat movements and people. It will take stands on issues such as the Kellar trail. It will also serve as a forum for liberal and progressive events, and welcomes news releases from groups working for the public good. PeoriaStory will be a fresh, new voice for the Peoria area blogosphere, and offer a liberal and progressive perspective for our times.
