That reminds me of a sad story. The much beloved first wife of Richard Fenyman, a gifted physicist who worked on the first atom bombs and later was head of Cal Tech, was ill and the doctors couldn't figure out what was wrong with her. Richard set about the task himself but the first diagnosis he came up with, a type of glandular tuberculosis, was so obvious he discarded it immediately thinking the doctors would have seen it right away. He began digging deeper for explainations but never found one.
It took a long time for Arline Fenyman to die, but in the end it was glandular tuberculosis. Norm S/V Bandersnatch Lying Julington Creek FL N30 07.68 W081 38.47 > Good point.
