Re: What's one of the last things you "googled" or just looked up and what did you learn?

I had to look up how to turn a SharePoint site into a template to use for other sites. I had done it many months ago, but had since forgotten the steps and needed a refresher.

Since a somewhat controversial law just passed in my state, I googled in-depth info on varieties of plant people garden and the different uses, i.e. which of the varieties are good for what. I learned a lot.

I hope you'll share any success you have with pain relief.


 

That might be difficult on these forums ;-)

 

It is primarily why I'm interested - pain relief and insomnia. But not the only reason 😜


I've had good luck with the sleep 😴 aspect.

Magusto.  It's a Portuguese autumn celebration on November 11 -- St. Martin's Day.  People gather around a fire and eat baked chestnuts and drink special alcoholic beverages.  I had no idea chestnuts played such an important role in this celebration.

 

Magusto

 

Now when I hear Nat King Cole singing about chestnuts roasting on an open fire, I'm going to think of Magusto.

I just left google where I had looked up  Edgewood Arsenal human experiments

 

I often look it up as I'm hoping some day to find someone to talk to about it.

 

Here's what it said (I was interested in finding out about Mustard Gas)

 

The mutagenic and carcinogenic effects of mustard agent mean that victims who recover from mustard agent burns have an increased risk of developing cancer in later life.

 

 

I did find someone who had written on one of the sites that his father had worked there, and had been subjected to those experiments. (civilian worker as was my relative)

I tried to email that person, but apparently the email wasn't in use anymore.
