#3 Question for Doctor Steve: is the treatment for rabies still really painful?

#4 I can answer that. The number of shots has been reduced, and you no longer have to get them in the stomach. LINK

There is a vaccine for rabies that those with high risk of exposure, like vets, can get. LINK [pdf file]

#8 PBMcL: No. The new vaccine is much easier, less painful, and more effective.

#11 Glad to hear about the new rabies treatment. I guess I'll have to put away Mr. Hatfields shaving cream this Halloween.

#16 He was lucky he did not stumble on a wolverine near her den. They are fierce critters! I was landing on a ridge with a helicopter. A wolverine came out of her den and attacked the chopper bubble and door. We hovered out of there and landed a couple hundred yards away.

Frank. In or out of the water? heh heh heh
