apoptosis.

yes, i'm a nerd.
was listening to a teleconference this evening and heard apoptosis. and apoptolytic.
every time i hear apoptosis i think that it is such a cool word. i love how it sounds.
i told you i was a dork.  just thought i should document my strange love of medical terminology for future generations...

Okay, sweetie, this was tough! First I had to look up "apoptosis". Fine, but the definition includes "phagotysosis". Now I look that up and..."phagocytes"! Wow! All that stuff and I now have a way better way to say "white blood cells"!!! Cool!
