"They found the perfect cure, but they seem to have lost the patient."  earnest hemmingway, after receiving electroconvulsive therapy for his manic-depression (and just before committing suicide).  The only difference between modern convulsive therapy and that performed on hemmingway is that they paralyze you before they do it now, so you don't break your backbone when you arch like a contortionist on the operating table.  It is the worst idea ever created to combat any disease. ever.  its like sticking a fork in a fuse box to turn off a lamp.  It is a tragedy of ignorance propogated by the sons of Josef Mengele.  Its like a psychyatrist telling a person leaches will destill the humours which are causing their despair.
