> Man.. feel like I am taking a beating here LOL. Look, what I am trying to get through to you guys is that even when we KNOW something is wrong, even when we KNOW for a fact that it is going to cause more heartache down the road, we continue to do it. -I don't think I was beating on you, Tony. My comment was agreeing. We have now reached the point in understanding cellular structure that we can work with the natural flow of life to screw it up in the bacteria we need to fight. We have just catalogued the bacteria, mainly friendly, or at least not harmful, that live with us, on us. We are getting away from trying to kill them with poisons and kill them by interference with their natural processes. Admittedly penicillin is a natural substance used in an unnatural way medically. After all most of us like blue cheese, but those of us allergic to penicillin stay away from it. Tony, all you are asking is that we go with the flow of nature, and we ar beginnng to do that. It was easier to jump start anti-bacterial therapy with sulfa drugs and penicillin in the 1930-40's than to wait for the cellular research we have reached now. Murphy's law still applies. Every jump forward will have unintended consequences, but I saved some lives with the early antibiotics, and undoubtedly harmed others. Logic and thinking folks like you are causing the current switch to using life's processes in more beneficial ways.
