I had half-a-panic-attack by just reading about the "drilling". yuck.
I'm going brushing/flossing/whatevah NOW.
re: the Coulter issue: I feel a tiny twinge of sadness for any person who would resolve to do something like that AND think they could get away with it (and I'm shocked she did get as far as being published, actually... don't editors, like, read?), for the same reasons as you do.
re: the Algernon Threshold: (1) I'm glad I'm not the only one who's suffering from (having flown through and past) it *sigh*, (2) I too could mark the day I thought I was 'going stupid' all at sudden, except I hadn't drunk and I blamed it on depression and/or anemia, as they, surprisingly, sounded like better and more comforting excuses at the time, and (3) I'm rather positive that's how Threshold is written (two 'h's -- not that I would believe for a moment that you'd not know or remember ;)) as that's how it was for the (now cancelled?) TV show.
