curious......which ones don't you remember?

the iron lungs for polio victims?

Actually, the penicillin one is inaccurate as its use began in the '40s (if 1949 that would be 63yrs)......but it was "invented" (discovered) in 1928

I don't know when this bit of trivia was written, but I guess it could be a few years old.
