&gt; My favorite is someone who shall go nameless who argued in support of an erectile disfunction treatment in front of his board by dropping his trousers and injecting his penis in front of them. I have only heard of this second hand but I bet there was quite a reaction!<p>That was Brindley&#x27;s (in)famous lecture on papaverine: &quot;How (not) to communicate new scientific information: a memoir of the famous Brindley lecture&quot; <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;onlinelibrary.wiley.com&#x2F;doi&#x2F;10.1111&#x2F;j.1464-410X.2005.05797.x&#x2F;full" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;onlinelibrary.wiley.com&#x2F;doi&#x2F;10.1111&#x2F;j.1464-410X.2005....</a> The reaction was just as you suppose and everyone here might enjoy reading Klotz&#x27;s recollection of witnessing it.
