Kudos to Hank Stern for hosting the All Saints Day edition of Health Wonk Review, in which you’ll find the first — and probably the last — time I’ll be linked with Leon Jaworski.  Hank scoured the history books (or websites) for notable November 1st events, but as host of last month’s Columbus Day Blawg Review I feel compelled to highlight one missing link:  November 1, 1520, the day Magellan’s circumnavigating expedition entered the Strait of Magellan.
