MARCO Grand Rounds for December 4, 2016

From Warren, KD4GUA:

THIS SUNDAY we will discuss 'DEBUNKING THE DEBUNKERS."    What does that mean?  Well, when we were kids we all knew that Popeye was super strong because he ate spinach which contained IRON.  Thus, Mom  told us to eat spinach.  Popeye's creators knew that spinach has a lot of iron but in 1937, scientists realized that the original measurement of the iron in 100 grams of spinach, 35 milligrams--was off by a factor of 10.  That's  because a German chemist had questionably placed a decimal point in his notebook back in 1870 and the goof persisted for more than half a century.

Then in 2014 a report that men who had vasectomies MAY be at risk for prostate cancer--finally we had to go to SCOPES to find out if this were true--

     

Now we are confused by when screening for breast cancer, prostate cancer, G.I. cancer should be done and....?

To add to the confusion, tune in 11 am. Eastern, 14.342 MHz--should be fun.
