Re: 2016 HSNCT discussion
Nobody calls amphotericin B by its brand name any more, unless they've been practicing medicine forever. I've taken two courses on antibiotics and I don't remember ever discussing that brand name.

Re: How to Study American History
I haven't had much lucking in finding other large-scale online or print collections of historical political cartoons, but I'm sure other people in the community have and I'd love it if they shared 'em. The "Comics Should Be Good" blog took a look at Pulitzer Prize winning cartoons in 2009...
