And did you really only learn that science like magic comes with a prize after the Frankenstein episode because Geesh I knew it ever since I learned of the horrors of modern warfare including the ultimate horror of global thermonuclear annihilation. I knew it the moment i saw pictures of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in history books at first and now readily available on the internet for everyone to see. Yes Science can be a blessing or a curse and sadly a lot of times has been used to create ever more destructive ways to kill and wage war... Nah, I was trying to refer to the show only ;) I know the so called "science" can be either a curse or a blessing, depending on how you use it, even from the ancient greek myths. Our modern "science" was born from ancient "philosophy" which included knowledge in bothany, astronomy, chemistry and so on. Ever since then, a normal herb, as eleborous could be used to cause vomit and so, cure some illnesses as food poisoning, but, used as a lot, it could cause death, like in Alexander the Great.

So, no, I was referring to the show, to appoint that even if Greg and Tamara have "the last in science", they could have very, very nasty consequences. Now I totally understand where the episode "In the Name of the Brother" comes in, as it seemed almost totally out of place.
