Old hobby, new reward.

At one point in time I thought I might buy and resell books. I love books. Not necessarily reading them. Weird I know, but true. I loved finding these little used treasures at garage sales and estate sales. I thought I better find some way to sell them if I wanted to continue buying them. So I set off to collect 300 of the nuggets of knowledge, at which time the goal was to list them on Abe books and purge some so I could buy more. That part isn't nearly as fun and so here I sit with 300 books I've never read.

I think, I'll resume the hobby at some point. But meanwhile, I think I've just been rewarded for my effort. In my previous post I talked about an annoyance I thought might be some type of fungal thing. The doc thought otherwise. I think he's wrong. He's got four more days to show progress. Anyway, I thought, I might just try to read one of these bound paper curios and make some use of them. And what do I find? A book by Doug Kaufmann called the Fungus link(ISBN 9703418-0-6). How timely.

What's always amazed me is how these little medical gems keep coming out and yet they get squashed so mightily by the AMA we never hear of them again. I've heard of discoveries to motion sickness, breast cancer, dyslexia and others that never see the light of day. And why they haven't seen the light of day. My belief is that the cures that would follow don't involve pharms. If money can't be made, no studies will be done. End of story.

So, while I have been hearing of fungal links to many maladies, I have as yet to see anything put together. and here I had it in my own living room. Ha!

So I begin reading my yearly book.
