Is There A Connection Between Type 1 Diabetes And The Cold Virus?

I read this in a book about diabetes. Some researchers thought the cause of Type 1 was a cold virus that mutated and attacked the pancreas. They also thought there was a link to serious illness around 10/11 years old. At the time of the book's publication none of this was proven. My dad died from complications of Type 1, he almost died of Scarlet Fever when he was 10 so I'm wondering. Does anybody know?

Is There Now 0 Chance Of Ron Santo Making The Hall Of Fame?

Unfortunately, there probably is a zero percent chance.
But Santo should definitely be in there. Bill James is absolutely right on this one. (in fact, James said that if he were in charge of the HOF, the first player he would put in would be Santo).
