    I could've sworn I'd seen a picture of teeth in a petri dish well before the pandemic.

    Sonething about needing to take a suitable stem cell biopsy during a wisdom tooth removal, and the challenge back then being no control over which tooth would form.

    Am I just remembering a dream or an April fool's joke?

    (Both have happened. IIRC it was someone on this forum who disabused me of the Medieval Mandelbrot).
