Some of the chemical elements, present in the coal in trace concentrations, ended up in the exhaust of the locomotive and may have medicinal properties. Maybe Jimmy had a selenium deficiency?
My 43 year old niece is the longest survivor of Burkitt Lymphoma. She was diagnosed at age five in 1976. She was used as a “human guinea pig”, and the treatment was successful. It was believed that she could never have children, but she gave birth to two healthy children and is now a grandmother. Miracles do happen.

Yes, selenium and arsenic – essential trace minerals that are toxic in larger doses. How many people know that you need a trace amount of arsenic?

I’m hoping that they found a way to make a cure by boiling a parrot in coal oil.
