IS Blogs I Read

Speaking of international healthcare organizations, the Assocation of International Glaucoma Societies Web site sings, dances, and makes gratuitous use of frames.

Seriously.

Check it out here: http://www.globalaigs.org/

In addition to moving bobbleheads of (presumably) well-known researches who study and treat the disease, the site features someone who sounds an awful lot like the person who did the opening score for the original Star Trek theme singing an opera about fighting glaucoma.

No, I am not making this up. Here are the words, and here's a link to the actual audio file:

Glaucoma, Glaucoma, Glaucoma
Constricting vision slowly
Halted by progress of science
Vision of a world united
Beyond all science knowing!

Someone please join a club and beat their Webmaster over the head with it.
