amgreene (Andrew Marc Greene):

Dr. John of Gaddesen, court physician to Edward II, claimed to have cured
the king's son of smallpox by wrapping the patient up in red cloth,
putting red curtains on the windows, and seeing that all the hangings
in the room were red. This raised a merry Victorian guffaw at the
expense of mediaeval simplicity, until it was discovered by Dr. Niels
Finsen of Copenhagen in the twentieth century that red and infra-red
light really did affect the pustules of smallpox, even helping in the
cure of the disease.

tjcoppet (Tom Coppeto):
She slid down to the city limits
Monkey time in fifteen minutes
Top dog. Top cat.
Move that muscle and shake that fat...
Chicago, L.A.
Everyplace, everyway
Bite your lip, get up, get up and dance.
Bite your lip, get up, get up and dance.
Bite your lip, get up, get up and dance dance dance...
