Review of Consistency of Jell-O

This is a very informative piece produced without a narrator. It is well produced, with interviewees leading into each other very well.
I was amazed by some of the information in this piece... how the brain heals, dumb "replacement" cells, the comparison to Jello. Amazing. It doesn't even cover HOW the brain and the cells can "remember" information, and I'm still impressed.
It's a sad story that hopefully will turn out for the best. It's weird how medicine can have this effect: we are so good at saving lives, that people are living with strange new disablilities.
