We thrive on illness or symptomatology, I should say. These ads turn the simplest symptoms into major diseases. And because most of us fear our own mortality, we listen [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It is unfortunate that since we have so much technology, we as a whole population expect more of medicine and expect everybody to expect more.  What do I mean?  Well, it seems that we all expect to live longer and if someone decides to allow nature to take its course, we ostracize them.  We think they [...]]]></description>
