Penicillin don't come from lichen.

Penicillin was originally isolated from the Penicillium chrysogenum
(formerly Penicillium notatum) mold. The antibiotic effect was
originally
discovered by a young French medical student Ernest Duchesne studying
Penicillium glaucum in 1896, although his work had no lasting
consequences.
Not accurate. Fleming's family must still be threatening to fling law
suits
around including in the direction of Wiki!

UK Channel 4 got threatened with legal action by Fleming's family for
stating in a documentary that Fleming was about to throw the Petri
dishes
away when the student noticed the mould had killed that bacteria.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penicillin

Did Fleming get any help from lowly American housewives?

Like the treaty between Israel and Egypt brokered by Jimmy Carter that's
been carefully and deliberately forgotten about because he's a Democrat.

All peep hole remember of him now is that he had a silly grin and grew pee
nuts!
