		<description>Must be something in the ether (19th century and all that) today, reading about Q ratios and hotness quotients.  Stephen Laffoley writes:
&lt;blockquote&gt;In 1842, German physiologist and physician, Wilhelm Ludwig put forward the radical 'Ludwig's Theory,' which explained, in purely chemical and physiological terms, the simple function of the liver. Why was it considered a 'radical' theory? Because most people at that time still believed that the liver had a mystical 'life force,' which explained, to their latent medieval minds, the very wonder that was urine. Though it seems a trifling argument now, Ludwig's Theory, medically and scientifically, was a forceful leap into the modern age of rational medical science.

That said, some forty years later, in 1889, the Testicular Extract Theory - posed by French-American physician Charles Edouard Brown-Sequard - posited that the injection of liquefied guinea pig testicle under the skin of an aged man would invigorate his sexual drive and prowess. &lt;/blockquote&gt;

Mix one part mystical life force's golden elixir, two parts TET from special little piggies living piggy lives, and apply to adolescent boy band members, wait for live performance (lip synched of course) and observe.</description>
