Who knows, but all these years later, authors with a book to market still play footsie with Decker's wholly unsubstantiated story. The Hooblers retell the Decker tale in their last chapter, then lamely attach a disclaimer: "There is no external confirmation for it. Yet it has frequently been assumed to be true by authors writing about the case." But naturally when their book was excerpted in Vanity Fair this month, it was the Decker story that occupied most of the excerpt, with the Hooblers' shrugging disclaimer...
...next hour, the three boys troop around the stable to tack the horses. They wrap protective bandages around the ponies’ fore legs, attach the bridles, lay out saddle blankets, and braid the tails to make room for back swings. Nick jumps onto a golf cart with a large rake attached to the back, and the vehicle wheezes and rattles across the indoor arena in sweeping symmetrical arcs to smooth the sand, or “footing,” which is looser than most other indoor fields. Mid-way, Nick gets out of the car to swiftly scoop...

...Boston A New Way to Fight the Flu Researchers have developed an antibody-based therapy for the flu virus that may help combat seasonal illnesses as well as more dangerous strains like the infamous H5N1 bird flu. The antibodies attach to a part of the virus that is less mutation-prone than the section targeted by current vaccines (which must be redeveloped every year to counter the virus' changes). Tests on mice produced promising results, although clinical trials with humans won't occur for a few years...
...changing dye, and a molecule that mimics glucose, all of which float in spherical polymer bead. When a glucose-detecting molecule approaches the edge of the bead, it should latch onto either a glucose molecule or the glucose-like molecule. If glucose levels are high, the detecting molecule should attach to glucose in the bead, making the ink appear yellow. If glucose levels are low, the molecule should latch onto the glucose mimic, causing the ink to turn purple. A healthy level of glucose would be represented by a color somewhere in between, explained Clark. Clark and her colleagues?...
