You know, I hadn't watched it in years.  I had been fiddling with an
ANSI graphic I'm making someone, and didn't realize whatever show I had
been watching was over, and 60 Minutes came on.  Kinda caught my
attention as I hadn't seen it in years.  I was rather suprised by the
quality of the reporting and depth they went into.  It was some crazy
concept of curing sickle cell anemia by combining HIV DNA (minus
whatever makes it bad for you) and something else .. and injecting it
into the blood stream.  Tests so far show it completely cured sickle
cell, within tests under a microscope that is.  I didn't see the end,
was pulled away by the kids.  But it was very interesting.
