   For anyone still here...   
      
   Back in 1994 Ms. Ramirez was critical ill with late stage   
   cancer and came to a California emergency dep't. [a]   
      
   Where... a bunch of staffers collapsed and a couple   
   got critically ill.   
      
   Lots of lots of investigations ensued.   
      
   (We had extensive discussions back then).   
      
   Anyway, this exact (more or less) scenario   
   was the ksy plot device in tonight's episode   
   of "Murdoch Mysteries", a crime drama based   
   in 1910ish Toronto.   
      
   S17 ep 19 "A most surprising bond"   
      
   And yes, they even figured out the DMSO link!
