I used to work in a nursing home. I was the nursing office "do-whatever" for the day shift. Once, I had to take a form around to the nurses for them to read and sign. Of the eight nurses on duty, 5 were left handed!! That really surprised me and I did some research on that and determined that 5 out of 8 was a huge difference from the regular population.

Would have to question the validity of yesterday's answer. The rating for Lego is 5 years old. The same organization that provided that rating in 2015 now considers Ferrari in top place (January 2020).

Laudanum (opium), mercury, kerosene - all kinds of crazy stuff

Just think how people will be laughing and horrified about how backwards today's medicine is in 100 years.

I agree with Coke. I think coca leaves are still used in Peru as medicine.
