ozarkcanoer,

I'm both surprised and delighted that CTV came out with this story! I guess we really do have allies at CTV!! I'm wondering though if they came under attack after they aired the "Liberation" segment.

OC - very interesting article. Even though much of the research is looking at Parkinson's disease, it does seem to have a correlation to the iron deposition in MS. Maybe another dot is about to be connected.

Thanks for posting
Sharon

Unfreakingbelievable. But did they have to link up to CR's blog lol. No matter that is incredible to possibly explain the mechanism beyond our current understanding. Wow another printout to digest and ponder. Can you imagine walking into your neuro or whoever and saying, "OH my gosh you have Semmelweis Reflex, are you taking something for that??"

The stack of papers grows....

We have a pretty staid media (and population) here, and to the best of my knowledge, no one has anything but praise for CTV's W5 on this story (blogging blow-hards don't count). I have not even heard of any real public criticism of Dr. Zamboni's work, but for the neuro in Ottawa, to whom Dr. Z quickly, and adroitly, responded. Nobody is listening to the Ottawa stiff, anyway (o).

Canadians don't work on mice either. Grin
