Yeah, never ever ever try to smell anything that looks moldy to see if it is or not. Especially if the supect is any color other than white, or blue (assuming that you bruised the cake).
The contamination forum has some very interesting posts. They make me want to go into (micro)biology.

His last post was 12/28/04.

And usually in people's user profiles is says when they last connected to shroomery (Last Seen), but that feature isn't on his.

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm............
They should be fine as long as you kept them in a cool, dry, dark place. I once ate a couple of cubensis that had been sitting in a plastic bag on a shelf in my friend's basement, and I was fine. But you should check them out with a microscope just to be safe.

Check the gills underneath the cap for green or white looking mold. If you see any sort of stalks or fuzzy patches growing, toss the whole bag. What kind of mushrooms are they? Can you get me a closeup shot witha digital camera?

Cubensis usually smell and taste like feet. It's an aquired taste 
So, can you get me some closeups? I need to see the cap, gills, and stalk. If you don't know what kind they are I might be able to ID them for you. Emphasis on might. But I can not say for sure whether they are safe to eat or not unless I see them for myself. Digital camera?

man hope you are doing better now, do you have info on incubation periods and if this stuff naturally fades?
back in october i had some contam'd cakes and i fucking was a dumbass and kept them for a bit to see if the contamination would get overrun and was smelling that nasty shit everyday. black and off white shit it was baaaaaad but i chucked them after a few days i think
at the time i had some coughing and breathing trouble and for about a month after i was often very tired. it subsided though and i obviously can't know if any more recent sickness has been related to that
i honestly do not think that shit is still in me, but it would be good to find out. i don't think the amount of spores i inhaled was so significant but then again i am no expert. i just don't think the sickness would incubate for such a long time before showing prolonged symptoms.
i'm going to look this up, but anyone have any info?

BUMP!
oh shit....
i just read this and i am really scared!
i have...
my knee and my joints hurt
i slur my words ( every day at least once)
i have pain in my stomach short but painful
right now my throat hurts and i am coughing and when i cough it burns
i twitch on occasion ( twitch really bad when i smoke weed)
i have a liver problem ( never checked it out before)
and all this b/c
when ever i had a contamed jar i would take it out and let it sit on my counter and then i would see if it would be fine ... i let it sit in my room for weeks b/c i was discouraged at the failure so after i got some more prints i started up again so i took those nasty jars ( quart sized ) and i took them out about 4 of them and i emptied them out outside in my garden i remember the horrible smell and squinting my eyes and turning my head and i did this on about 2 -3 separate occasions around June .
i just hope I'm paranoid and i just have a case of strep or something but in any case I'm going to go to the doctor on Tuesday and have them check me out. b/c what is happening to me is not normal i.e the stomach pains sudden weight loss i am just scared.
DONT EVER SMELL A CONTAMED JAR OR ANYTHING TO SEE IF IT SMELLS "funky" as they say a lot of the time in the contam forums. WHICH IS WRONG
any word on fucknuckle yet?
crossing fingers
this is a very good post and should be stickied!

Please make a post fucknuckle!!!!!!I hope you 're fine shroomer!....MAKE THIS POST STICKY MODS, please
and a question for all of you:
Do you throw away every single jar that gets contams??? Cos i don't but seriously think i sould stop fighting the contams...this is the shitiest news i have ever read on the shroomery, but its a good lesson for every shroomer on this earth.
What about wet spot - sour apple smeelling contams?
Something that might be usefull for anyone with this kind of problem and even prevention from such could be grapefruit seed extract liquid concentrate
I got one called citricidal and its from a company named Higher Nature .
It kills 300 bacteria and more than 500 fungus/molds
I use it to strengthen my immune system, if i catch a cold, headaches and many many more situations...is it said to be the "natural antibiotic" from my herbalist doc.
Please people, BE CAREFULL! 
Anyone who knows anything about fucknuckle please make a post, i am really worried.  I hope he's ok
