You don't know about this? It comes from sticking chopsticks up
your nose while waiting for the waiter to bring your food. You've
never encountered this problem? Whazzamatter? You don't go
for Chinese?<br><br>

Headline: China takes lead on stem cells; scientists amazed by work
to<br>
treat damaged nerves<br><br>
First sentence: "When Jianhong Zhu treated a patient with a
chopstick<br>
lodged in his brain, not an uncommon injury in China, the utensil<br>
ultimately helped repair the damage it had caused."<br><br>
The rest of the article covered developments in stem cell research in
China and Japan, but did not answer the pressing questions of how
the chopstick got into the brain and why this is not an uncommon injury
in China.<br><br>
