Uhm... ew.
I can't even imagine being infested with hooks. I would freak out if a worm came crawling out of my bum.

True, but I admit I was totally sucked into the story and the possibility of yet another of nature's interesting quirks. I found it fascinating.

Yes, I read the article too! It was fascinating... gross, but fascinating. Anyway to stick it to the drug companies and closed-minded people in the medical field is cool.

Having applied the top layer of this material to my flesh for an hour I invariably get the rash and cough associated with hookworm infestation at the right times. Because that is MUCH better than asthma.
