From PETER CALVER
Alison Brooks asks: ‘Did anyone really believe that even a naive little
old lady . . . would dry a pet dog in an oven, let alone in a microwave?’
I too found this story a little hard to swallow.
At least I did until I turned to page 19 of the same issue (Technology),
where I read that ‘a Canadian researcher has devised a cure for pigs suffering
from hypothermia: pop them in the microwave’.
A case of life imitating art?
