Interesting article in today's Los Alamos Monitor on Dr. Storkan's cancer fight. He did the opposite of the author of the book Anti-Cancer. Dr. Storkan first tried alternative therapy and that strengthened his body but allowed the squamous cell carcinoma to spread to his lymph nodes.

But, as Dave says, Thunder Dog also likes to eat cat poop!
