Seems my father has become some sort of visual aid here.  Never mind. 
You obviously overestimate the amount of spare time my dad had on his
hands.  He listened to what his doctor told him, man, as did everybody
else. More the fool he, one might say, but unless you are able and
willing to set yourself up as a walking, talking compendium of all the
world's knowledge, you're gonna have to rely on the "experts" for some
things.  No?  Besides, most people are not curious - that is the nature
of the beast. I'm talking about the real world here, not the ideal.
