Just wait... pretty soon we will have feces patents, and you'll have to wipe with lawyer approved writs, and only wear legal briefs to avoid breaching patent law.

The dependence on antibiotics is starting to take a toll.

And yet, if we never used antibiotics, many of us would be dead of very simple infections, and many of our routine surgeries would be extremely dangerous.

In the 1600s, wound infection was so common that redness, warmth and purulence were thought to be desirable features of wound healing.


The real issue is to understand the nature of the ecosystem in which we live and to use antibiotics judiciously.

My daughter sends this article, with the comment:

"Fecal transplants utilizing frozen fecal matter delivered via nasogastric tube. I'd call it a poopsicle through your snootsicle!"
