STILL Sore Throat

How long can a sore throat last?  Does anyone have the number for the Guinness people?

Based on empirical evidence, I believe the Pentagon may be interested in a drug called prednisone.  Not only is taking it worse than waterboarding, I believe we may have discovered a more lethal replacement for mustard gas and Sarin.  Long-term prednisone use, coupled with a diet including a can or two of New England Clam Chowder, and wow-eee....    I haven't seen any flying bugs in Weyers Cave for a week now.
