And in disturbingly relevant news from 1933...
"Why a four-year-old child could understand this report. Run out and find me a four-year-old child. I can't make head or tail out of it."
--Groucho Marx as Rufus T. Firefly, "Duck Soup"

Child proof cap of course, so too hard for a 29 year old. So I heard her - barely speaking because of the fever - "daddy let me help you". I brought the bottle to her bed and of course she opened it the first try.
