Linda, I'm not trying to cause a debate and I say this with much respect, that political people (like Charles Brusch, M.D., President Kennedy's personal physician) have a way of explaining things away. I'm not saying he's not a good man, I'm sure he is - but how many times have you heard of indigenous indians giving IV therapy? They take teas, lotions, etc. He has contributors to answer to and has to be the top dog, the one that "made it available to the common folks".
