spleen
many have asked me what a spleen is. i checked dictionary.com and found this definition:
spleen n. A large, highly vascular lymphoid organ, lying in the human body to the left of the stomach below the diaphragm, serving to store blood, disintegrate old blood cells, filter foreign substances from the blood, and produce lymphocytes.
