   You know, I hadn't watched it in years.  I had been fiddling with an   
   ANSI graphic I'm making someone, and didn't realize whatever show I had   
   been watching was over, and 60 Minutes came on.  Kinda caught my   
   attention as I hadn't seen it in years.  I was rather suprised by the   
   quality of the reporting and depth they went into.  It was some crazy   
   concept of curing sickle cell anemia by combining HIV DNA (minus   
   whatever makes it bad for you) and something else .. and injecting it   
   into the blood stream.  Tests so far show it completely cured sickle   
   cell, within tests under a microscope that is.  I didn't see the end,   
   was pulled away by the kids.  But it was very interesting.
