Museum of shady devices

Monday's Wall Street Journal clued us in to the existance of FDA-historians who catalogue and organize vintage medical devices
— banished gems that had their FDA approval yanked or shady devices that the FDA slammed. Some such forgotten wonders are the "Hemorr-Ice", a refrigerated thumb-sized plastic cylinder to treat hemroids
(ouch), the "Waist Whittler", a squeezing belt for fat ladies of the 60's, and "Acupuncture Pants", underwear with embedded magnets to supposedly increase male potency. Some devices were actually dangerous like the
"Shoe Fluoroscope," pictured right, which was used by shoe stores to x-ray (radiate) customer's feet.
