Scientific advances are advancing in leaps and bounds (or so it seems lately). I'd never thought of why scratching helps "fix" an itch... but scientists figured it out. :)

Wow, I never thought they'd be able to find something like that. I'm guessing within twenty years they'll have a cure for itching. Thanks for showing us that Prrkitty!
