A few other Coke facts: Dallas was the first city to open a Coca-Cola Bottling Company outside Atlanta. The first two countries outside the US to bottle Coke were Cuba and Panama. For 65 years, Coca-Cola has been the most recognized trademark in the world.

Oh to have lived in a generation of coked up coke drinkers... that would have made for some fine poetry.

Some of the earliest discoveries of marijuana's properties date back to 2700 B.C. in China, where it was described in pharmacopoeias. The ancient Greeks and Egyptians used it for ailments, and word of the herb spread across Europe. In 1484, Pope Innocent VIII banned hashish. In the 20th century, the Rastafari religious movement incorporated smoking marijuana into the faith as a means of spiritual discovery.

There's actually such a thing as a fecal transplant--no shit, and no pun intended. We did one on a patient last month, and the theory behind it, is to alleviate one's own fecal bacterial overgrowth that has caused colon disease, by literally transplanting shit from someone else (usually a genetically close relative ), into the intestines of the patient. A tube is snaked down the esophagus and into the gut, and liquified feces are run through it and into the colon, the thought process being to replace the overgrown bacteria with a normal level of fecal bacteria.

So there's your weird fact from a medical standpoint, which sort of gives new meaning to the term "eat shit", but in this case, is covered by insurance.

Where to get a Fecal Transplant



IF YOU LIVE IN THE USA:

As of April 2013, the FDA has classified fecal microbiota transplant (FMT) as an Investigation New Drug. This means that until FMT is formally approved, its use is restricted to the treatment of Clostridium Difficle (C Diff).  However the FDA ruling does not stop doctors assisting you by screening your donor or advising you how to do FMT safely at home.

HOWEVER, IF you do suffer from C-Diff, here are the handful of states where a medical practice can treat you

Bright Medicine Clinic, Portland, Oregon

RDS Infusions, Tampa FL

Lawrence Fielder MD, Boca Raton, FL

Caterina Oneto, MD, NYU School of Medicine

Daniel Hamptom, MD, Las Cruces, NM

Alister George MD, Thousand Oaks,CA

Roy Ozanne MD, Langley, WA

there are 2 docs in all of Europe and 2 in all of Australia

good luck :)

I had something pithy to say about de-evolution... but I lost it.
