    FYI
    Thanks, Rush, for the info. Karl, then MD, and now one of the greatest hitters of all time. Do kinda wonder where he's gonna get treatment. Salivary- reckon such as that will give him the side-effect we all know for a long time.

    Of note: my being one of the NPC Survivors, with your breaking news I am reminded of someone who just may be the most "famous" person to have had Nasopharyngeal- Babe Ruth.
