It wasn't that long ago that people took medicine. What I mean is that the word, "medication," was unused, because it was totally unnecessary. People's physician prescriptions were for "medicine"; you took "medicine"; no one had "medications"---it was as simple as that. Why the increep of "medication" into the language? Today I made a vow; I vowed to begin using "medication" the day Harvard's or Yale's College of Medicine changes its name to College of Medication. "College of Medication": sounds silly doesn't it? My point is made.
