Rabies

[Mark Kohut]

"hydrophobic" [Mad Dog] Bertrand Russell again....

Rabies: 
the disease; this can result in "hydrophobia", where the victim has difficulty swallowing, shows panic when presented with liquids to drink, and cannot quench his or her thirst. It progresses to delirium. The disease itself was also once commonly known as hydrophobia, from these characteristic symptoms. Death almost invariably results two to ten days after the first symptoms; the few humans who are known to have survived the disease were all left with severe brain damage.

Seems OBAs joshing of Bertie has taken a sharper judgment....

too easy to say: more of TRPs hatred of "pure rationalism"???
