Now I know there are billions of viruses in the ocean.
Could that be why shrimp, clams, lobster and crab taste so good

I learned more about Vincent. His mom had smart kids.

Saw the segment on the rabies virus, and all I can say is thank you Louis Pasteur and Emile Roux.

I will never eat Bouillabaisse again :)

A literal war between viruses and bacteria in the ocean. That has got to be gruesome under an electron microscope.

...And Jonas Salk.

My mom was a nurse in the 1940's and 50's at the Mass general hospital in Boston and met one of those great medical heroes and that's how her doctor supervisor introduced him.. . .

the hard part for all of us today is to imagine how hard life was prior to the 1940's when all the current day standard life saving discoveries started being researched and used . . our survival owes alot to those who want to make every day a safe and healthier day.

Do you want the red pill or the blue pill?

The red pill takes you back 200 years and the blue pill takes you forward 200 years. . .

Which do you take?

if red, will you be tough enough to survive? will you be able to use what you know?
if blue, will there be civilization? or will you be able to find your way without a machine?
