Does anyone watch this show? What do you think about the stories they tell? I think they're pretty interesting, although a bit difficult to believe, some of them. It was on this show that I first learned about Agent Orange. Quite a horror, really. Although I guess it shouldn't be too surprising. Not to mention the one where the doctor was studying personalities. Do you think that with his study, that was the reason the student became a terrorist? The ones I found freakiest, though was the one where the girls were using the radium as make up to glow, and where they were performing depilations using x rays. I must definitely find out more on the stories they tell on the show.

Some of those stories really are pretty twisted. But I guess not too surprising. Sometimes even if it's just a little curiousity can lead to something quite twisted. The scientist who discovered the formula which led to Agent Orange was horrified when he learned just what his knowledge was being used for. It was never his intention to harm anyone, quite the contrary.

Have you seen the episode featuring the song called "Gloomy Sunday"?
