Are we going to lose Kallie to Zinc poisoning?

That's almost up there with that girl getting scurvy from eating nothing but Ramen last year.

This one knows what he's talking about.

Seriously, I thought zinc lozenges were cough drops... and that you could pop them like candy.

Apparently, unrestrained, that leads to liver damage and kidney failure. I guess it's good I stopped at 7.

You do realize that's an urban myth they tell freshmen every year?

Didn't someone (from ESP? some class?) lie and say they worked for or knew someone who worked for Medical and that the story was 'true'?

There's an EMT who claims to have gone through the records at Medical and found it to be true. I rather doubt that, because of the whole patient confidentiality thing.

The freshman advisor I'm working with told the story to our seminar, and I believe him a bit more. If it did happen, it would have been in the late 80s - early 90s time frame. The most popular version of the story says it was a guy living on 5th East. Other versions have his teeth falling out before he actually went to Medical. Take that for what you will.

So the one I'm talking about is actually a girl in 233, whom I've met. And stolen her pumpkin, but that has nothing to do with anything.

I doubt that has nothing to do with anything.

Wasn't there an email complaining about a pumpkin earlier this year?

The DOOMCom I knew had a sense of morality and ethics. How low we have fallen.
