So, what starts out as a big joke ends up to be pretty serious. It makes me wonder if there is anything that the medical community is laughing off today that will be tomorrow's cause of cancer.
I can't help but think about how difficult it must have been to catch all of those moths in the Ford study. How difficult would that be? And are they such a controlled and localized creature containing themselves into one set of marshes that one can easily study them and their offspring? Imagine being one of Ford's students with your galoshes and your net.
So, inspired by the Ford study, Doll and Hill conduct theirs on doctors of all people. Pretty clever and resourceful to use the registry in that way. The ability that those two had to make connections, first to the Ford study and then to the registry as a resource.......powerful inquiry.
