Told You So!

It sometimes happens that the Wall Street Journal publishes the perfect article.  I present the one at the left, from the 25 October 2006 edition, as an exemplar.

No lesser a personage than the director of the Good Housekeeping Institute herself*, ca. 1980, prepeated to me the last sentence of this article.  (She used the term "anticariogenic properties," which I actually prefer, but in lay articles I take what I can get.)

Hmmm.  I wonder why my dentist always gives me a lollypop at the end of a session.

Happy
Halloween!

*A valid question might be:  How come you, the man who just recently learned to make tea, has hobnobbed with the director of the Good Housekeeping Institute.  Valid as it may be, the answer for now will have to be: "Coincidence."
