Who holds the stars up in the sky?


Last December marked the 50th anniversary of the first successful kidney transplant - and indeed, the first successful organ transplant ever! - which was performed by Dr. Joseph E. Murray. (Yup, that photo is from that historic operation.)

In 1990, Dr. Murray earned the Nobel Prize in Medicine for his accomplishment.

A video interview with Dr. Murray is also available.

This is inordinately cool. I should watch it when I'm at a computer that can handle video.

By the way, is it so very wrong that my first instinctive answer to the title question is "Spongebob Squarepants"?
