Last week in Chapel Hill, Isaac and Trudy Taylor, who were recently separated, reminisced about the children and their musical success.

Making small (1 mm.-long by 1 mm.-deep) wounds in their subjects' arms, they tried chilling first the wound itself, then the wound and the surrounding area, and finally the surrounding area alone. Each time they collected the blood in special plastic cubes and analyzed it to determine clotting time...

Hippocrates, notes the Mayo Clinic team, never recommended that cold be applied directly to a wound; he has been misquoted by those who claim that he did.
