"Why did he get that award?" asked Luke. Nancy said, "You don't know? He found a cure for heart disease. He found a cure for cancer. He found a cure for strokes. He found a cure for tuberculosis 1. He found a cure for malaria 2. He's trying to find a cure for diabetes 3. Millions of people are alive because of his work. He deserves hundreds of awards. But he doesn't want them. Award dinners interrupt his work. He works 16 hours a day trying to find cures." Luke said, "Well, he's forgetting mankind's number one problem. He should be trying to find a cure for baldness." Nancy said, "Baldness doesn't kill anyone." Luke said, "It's killing 4 my love life."
