You think I was wrong to bring that man back from the dead? We've had this conversation before. It was progress, and there is nothing better for human societies than the advent of progress. Look at them now, with their CAT scans and MRIs, when I was working with herbs and guesswork. Back then they might have called it magic. They call anything too advanced to understand magic and by the by, I don't expect you to understand, either.

Besides, that was a long time ago. Now will you stop griping over it? My patience is ill-equipped to deal with stupidity these days.

Good. Because there's nothing interesting about it and yes, I am referring to Hippocrates.
