Vitamin C Megadosing

What are people's thoughts on this? I'm intrigued by Linus Pauling and his work on the subject.

I do not feel you can megadose on Vitamin C. The body can absorb only so much and the rest comes out in the urine.

I've been reading Linus Pauling which contradicts this thought process, but with so many schools of thought out there one never knows!
