“Sallon, a pediatric gastroenterologist at Hadassah University Medical Center in Jerusalem from 1983 to 2000, founded the Louis L. Borick Natural Medicine Research Center at the hospital in 1995. For the past 15 years, she’s focused full time on how plants could be used as medicine.”

It has occurred to me, sitting her in my recliner with my shawl (throw) laying on my lap, half dozing off, that I am indeed an old date. Have to find me my Methuselah.

[Yaelle]

That is just too old to date. If they are older than Grandpappy, I’m out.

[Yaelle]

That is cool!

Joe Biden went on dates 2600 years ago...just ask him, he’ll tell you all about it.

The date in the article is some fruit, ya woulnd't want that anyway. ;^)

[HeadOn]

Ha! And it often IS me, I won’t deny it.

I like the Hebrew calendar years, but I was just pointing out an irony:

They mention Jesus, yet won’t use BC and AD...

See you around. I enjoy your posts.

[SunkenCiv]

It should come as no surprise that the Jewish Press doesn't use BC and AD.

[HeadOn]

Leave it to me to overlook the source...
