Oral Polio vaccines made out of monkey kidneys (made available to the public in 1955) were found in the 60's to contain a virus called SV-40 which occasionally causes brain cancer, apparently, in lab animals and maybe showed up like 5 or 6 times in cancerously maligned human cadavers. The government stepped in and said, "No! No more maybe dangerous ( Read more... )

I am glad you are coming back, so there. 14th and 17th indeed. The 14th I am off (we will party) the 17th there is a show at ronnys, which I will be working. But I think it's probably worth going to.'m actually pretty excited about it.

Hope you're doing well, CT. Haven't seen you in another forever, as it always seems.

I am really glad I remembered while mindlessly combing the internets that you were posting on livejournal again. In 2001 I was not thinking about polio; in fact, I was probably combing the internets or posting on livejournal in my parent's log cabin or top bunk in my Columbia College dorm room. After that maybe I sewed some vegan themed patches onto my hoodies or dyed my hair black. However, I can guarantee you that if I had found out polio vaccines were made of monkey hearts I would have been instant messaging all of my friends letting them know how they could boycott the five hundred pharmaceutical companies and financial institutions with share in the stock. I bet a year later I would then run into you looking crusty and fine at a bowling alley turned venue and ask you what YOU were doing to ensure we no longer use animal parts to prevent deadly diseases. In turn, you would dumpster an unforgivable pair of pants that would later turn into an ongoing joke between yourself and I. Five years after that day in Jewel, I will take ( ... )
