[edit] Underpants back to front?
Is that vandalism? It's been in the article for months and no-one's removed it? Miss Pippa 00:31, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Not sure really... but even if it is true it is pointless, so in my opinion it should be removed Jxre 01:03, 9 April 2006 (UTC)
The underpants quote is correct. I've added a source for it. I think it should stay, as Heatley's obituary points out, it says something about Heatley's low key nature that something as mundane as the direction of his undies is next to a great medical breakthrough in his diary.

[edit] Deep Fermentation
Am I to understand that Heatley invented deep fermentation? If so, why isn't the term invented, and why isn't there an article on it. After all, deep fermentation -- the process that produces penicillin in vast amounts -- saved hundreds of millions of lives. Scott Adler 09:14, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
