OP My dad just told me that he'd seen a program yesterday about frogs and warts. He said, "Your Grandma Etta knew a thing or two when she used to tie a frog onto your Mama's hand to get rid of a wart."
Mama piped in, "The frog had to die."
Daddy said, "You see, when the frog is scared, it emits some kind of subtance that has an antibiotic in it. That same antibiotic is used in medicines."
So, since I didn't see the program, does anybody know what it is that the scared frog gives off--and how do we harvest whatever this substance is? Do we chemically reproduce it?
