A Breakthrough in Medicine.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-24462699 Scientists have made a breakthrough in their search for a cure for degenerative brain disorders. There's a long way to go but it's a start.

Great news for the future. Lets hope it doesn't take too long.
Shame about the people who have missed out on it. I know two.

That is wonderful news and I feel nothing short of admiration for people who are clever enough to think of these things and they are, imo, one set of real heroes in society. I wish them well and a speedy move forward with this.

You're right there Julie.
I wonder if these evil, power-mad warmongers were very different from other children when they were growing up? I don't believe these traits suddenly develop after adulthood.
It's similar to some murderers who always showed cruel or violent tendencies even as children.
