I just couldn't stop laughing about this when I heard it on the news on Friday. Cruel of me, I know. I'm not usually that heartless, honest!

Found this in a linked story:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/3534558.stm - Viagra Protects Climbers' Lungs
"A lack of oxygen can trigger the heart and lung condition pulmonary hypertension.
But University of Giessen, Germany, researchers found Viagra prevents this. "
What exactly were they trying to find out????

Maybe they found an over 60s climbing group that suffered from impotence?

I would have thought that becoming suddenly potent halfway up a mountain was a bit of a hindrance.

Yeah, that also really made me laugh. I wonder if they will also soon report Viagra makes your palms go hairy.

"there is a biochemical similarity between the penis and the lungs."
Well, there you go. And I thought the day was going to go by without me learning anything new . . .

The subject of Viagra-related blindness came up at a dinner party the other night, and the *first* thing I wondered about was whether there's some kinda corelation between Viagra-blindness and that ol' myth of masturbation-blindness. Maybe it's extremely rare, but myths often have some kinda basis in fact. Does anyone know?

my theory is that this type of blindness is short sightedness related to the man looking at it in wonder(viagra) or while concentrating(masturbation)
