The scary thing is that even medications go by different names. When my wife and I were living in Guildford I needed some flu medicine for her and was asked if she was already taking any paracetamol. Too much is very damaging to your liver. I thought hard about it and said, "no." So they gave me some medicine and I on my way home I stopped by the office for a bit and on a whim looked it up. Lo and behold it's acetaminophen, which she *was* taking. Glad I checked or she'd be down about a quarter liver. -- Bryan C. Andregg <bandregg@loopback.net> http://www.loopback.net/photo/
