An Australian discovered Helicobacter pylori, the bacteria that causes peptic ulcers. Thanks to him stomach ulcers have become much less common."I say shoot'em all and let God sort it out in the end! -
I think I remember that discovery. Wasn't that the guy who drank a liquid with the bacteria in it, got stomach ulcers, and then proceeded to cure it, just to prove that he was correct?I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891Comment
