 +===== Fighting Cancer =====
 +
 +According to a study conducted at the University of South Australia, chemotherapy treatment is more successful when the game "Thunderstruck" is played throughout the procedure. The study discovered that the unique vibrations of the song allow the silicon microparticles to bounce, causing them to more effectively transport the chemotherapy medicine to where it is most required.

 +===== Brian Johnson =====
