Asker: Thanks Simon, my head started to spin after I read your suggestion. For a moment I thought I was way way off track...I must be tired or my neurons are holding a strike. :-)

Asker: for Tom: I'm talking about scienza (medica) ufficiale, what scientists believed to the the scientific/proved truth about something.
