The Milwaukee Brace helped slow things down and is far more manageable than the old-style plaster casts --a lovely friend had to wear one when we were in high school. However, an improved version of the plaster cast has been revived for some toddler-aged patients and can eliminate need for later surgery.

I am not in the least bit surprised that the prime fabulist you describe does in fact exist, and plays a significant role in people's thinking. Many are the times people take huge leaps (of faith) under the pf's influence. Bats and bees, the former in belfries, the latter in bonnets, are two more interstellar inhabitants that - or so I believe - that have journeyed from afar to settle on Earth.<br /><br />I must repeat my injunction to be careful.
