I love Tom Lehrer so much, and this story about him is such an incredible gift to share! Thank you.
With Tom Lehrer's passing, I suppose this is a moment to share the story of the prank he played on the National Security Agency, and how it went undiscovered for nearly 60 years.

Dr Peter Marks, "Vaccines have been studied very extensively for being potentially associated with autism"
"That theory has been debunked"
"One study in Denmark, over 600,000 children. It shows that if anything, children had a lower rate of autism than unvaccinated children"
