Oh crap. You know, I almost posted that this story had all the
ingredients of Urban Myth but I was sure it was true per the source.
My Sis & Brother-In-Law are into Urban Myths and frequently question
such known "factual stories" they hear about. You know, not
believing a wacky story unless the source is found.
So assuming she was pulling my leg...hmmm, It might be time for
her to take yet another visit to my basement "facility", which I
lovingly call "Mr. Steve's Dental Truth Extractor".
