At this year's commencement ceremony for the Medical graduates at
the University of Pennsylvania one of the speakers was rambling on
about things you learn in practice, not in school.  Actually, he was
quite interesting and amusing.  One the `folk' remedies (which he said
he has been collecting over the years from colleagues) was a sure fire
cure for the hiccups he learned from a Brittish doctor.

The cure:  a good, healthy sneeze.  Of course, the Brittish have discovered
a method of inducing a sneeze.  It's called snuff.
