Myth or Truth?

[Amicustoall]

So there are lots of "stories" or myths or wive's tales out there that some people believe are true and some do not. Perhaps it would be fun to explore some of them. I am thinking of things like:
1. Does the Yeti or Big Foot or some similar creature exist?
2. Is butter good for a burn?
3. Can humans spontaneously combust?

My opinion is that a Yeti does not currently inhabit the earth.

There are far better ways to treat a burn than using butter.

No humans can not spontaneously combust.

I think humans can combust, and it is given the adverb " spontaneously " because we don't know what the trigger is. For all we know, there might be a very rare disease that causes friction between blood cells that ignites fat in the blood. Horatio.

Ellen I saw an "In Search Of" w/ Leonard Nemoy when I was a kid- creeped me out- I have always worried about it-!:) Look out- when the hot flashes start!- I'll be a basket case!

My fave was that thing with Issac Asimov - cant remember the name. The best one was the one explaining past lives. Cryptoamnesia. Love it.

Ellen, I will forever love you for the last word in that post. :D

Well it is a good thing that I don't believe humans can spontaneously combust, this way I don't have to worry about it.
