Apropos of nothing, something you've probably seen already:

History of Modern Medicine:
2000 B.C. - "Here, eat this root."
1000 A.D. - "That root is heathen. Here, say this prayer."
1850 A.D. - "That prayer is superstition. Here, drink this potion."
1940 A.D. - "That potion is snake oil. Here, swallow this pill."
1985 A.D. - "That pill is ineffective. Here, take this antibiotic."
2000 A.D. - "That antibiotic is artificial. Here, eat this root."


You left out:

"There's nothing wrong with you. It's all in your mind. Go away and quit bothering me."

God bless America,
Land that I love!
Stand beside her, and guide her
Thru the night with a light from above.
From the mountains, to the prairies,
To the oceans, white with foam�
God bless America!
My home, sweet home.

-- Irving Berlin (1888-1989)
