Medical Miracle TED Talks. (And A Mouthful Of Foie Gras)

Dear M,

Thanks for the yummy brekle-lunk.

I enjoyed our time together.

Here are the three TED Talks I mentioned.

1.) "Young Woman Who Lost Both Legs To Preventable Infection Now Snowboard Champ"

2.) "University Of Toronto Neurosurgeon Works Miracles"

3.) And here's a compilation of good TED Talks. http://paxonbothhouses.blogspot.com/2012/09/especially-good-ted-talks.html The first talk is the one I recommend to round out this particular "trilogy." It's entitled Jill Bolte Taylor's stroke of insight

You will also be interested in Michael Pollan's TED Talk in the compilation above.

When we were with Janet at Chautauqua, did you attend the talk given by New York chef-restaurateur, Dan Barber? If not, here is that "same" talk given to a TED audience. It isn't "right up your ally" but serves as an exemplary illustration of how we can move away from the worst manifestations of animal abuse. Dan Barber's foie gras parable | Video on TED.com  http://www.ted.com/talks/dan_barber_s_surprising_foie_gras_parable.html

Te quiero mucho
