• After 20 years, death due to prostate cancer decreased by 10%
• After 20 years, death due to lung cancer decreased by 30% (among those with adenocarcinomas, typically seen in nonsmokers)
• After 20 years, death due to colorectal cancer decreased by 40%

Pretty interesting.

yeah that is why they are pushing us to use tylenol and motrin. The medical industry is trying to kill us all to decrease the surplus population.

Is there anything aspirin can't do?

A few years back, while I repaired a hydraulic pump for a tractor, I convinced the owner to start an aspirin regimen [with food]

About 4 years later he had a mild heart attack.

The doctor, upon hearing his history of aspirin, told him to go thank the guy because without them his condition would have probably been fatal..

Crude Oil, what else can you make other than the 4,000 petrochemicals, carpet, aspirin etc that we already make ?

Vern, I think the info you posted deserves a bump.
