The usual suspects plan to picket Nimoy's funeral. OK Trekkies: set phasers to stun.

Screw the phasers, slash their tires with a bat'leth. :) Do it in your full Klingon makeup and they would never be able to pick you out of a line up, especially if you switch foreheads with somebody if they make you be Klingon for the lineups. :D

Les: I knew i could count on you. Kwell lotion was our standard for scabies and pediculosis. Still nothing works better and if used as directed is incredibly safe. I hate when they replace the use of older medications because some ninny decided to over do it. I am from the PhisoHex era and still stick with a lot of the tried and true meds.

PhisoHex? Aren't you worried about causing tumors in Canadian rats?

Nah-the media loves to announce all these horrible things that everyday products cause. I am old enough to remember the cranberry scare(just before Thanksgiving), the apple scare, maraschino cherry scare, and of course most of those medicine related. Anything taken to the extreme(feeding a rat 10,000 times the human dose of something) is bound to be problematic. I am not sure anything is really safe if you eat or take enough of it and many of the valuable medicines cause problems only when given in combination with a bunch of other stuff. If age and experience taught me anything, it is that virtually anything taken in small enough doses(or moderation) usually does no harm. Even Arsenic, Cyanide, and Mercury all had a large number of medical uses back in the early days in the proper dosage. Even the Borgias using Cantarella knew that a little did no harm but a lot made for a wonderful way to rid yourself of enemies.
Phisohex was a wonderful scrub for surgery. Most bacteria dis not stand much of a chance and staph infections were uncommon. Nut when you dip babies who have 50% of their skin with 2nd and 3rd degree burns into it for long periods of time, maybe someone should have expected there could be a problem. Almost anything used to excess can be bad.

Even a born White Sox hater like me appreciated Minnie. Also "Jungle Jim" Rivera. RIP Minnie

Always felt somehow Minnie was going to make a Major League batting appearance after age 90. Probably batting against the Cubs and lacing one into centerfield. RIP MM.

LOved that stuff!
Agree with the skepticism. How many different for sure things can you see before realizing most of them come out specifically because of financial motivations. The Premarin thing, the Seldane thing, Albuterol..... I tell my patients when you see something like that look for the release of a new drug that will replace the maligned one.
