Your Quotes for 21 January 2006 - Teeth

Today's theme, admittedly lame, is based on two birthdays. Horace Wells was born in Vermont on this day in 1815 and went on to develop the first known use of anaesthesia, using nitrous oxide for the first time in 1844. Barney Clark was born on this day in 1921, after a career in dentistry he was the first person to receive an artificial heart, the Jarvic-7 implanted in 1983. Our theme today is Teeth. (I told you it was tenuous.)
