Did Galileo have Wegs?

I posted this on a yahoo wegs forum, but I have to say I enjoy our discussions on this forum more. Easier to read and figure out who's who!

So, reading this article, it made me wonder if Galileo had Wegs. Whatcha think, everyone?

That was certainly amazing. I never knew anything about Galileo! It does sound curious...would be interesting to know what he suffered from.
