    Are we on the threshold of a paradigm shift in scientific knowledge

    How dare you profit off the suffering of others.

    Are we on the threshold of a paradigm shift in scientific knowledge

    Turning it over to the govt completely: no Access to healthcare for everyone: yes Providing access to healthcare for every citizen is indeed more humane in my opinion.

    Are we on the threshold of a paradigm shift in scientific knowledge

    I was not actually wishing harm on you. My point was that people in healthcare work hard for their money and it is well deserved. A large staff of people that spent years in college and an incredible amount of money has to put "you" back together in the middle of the night on Christmas. Tell...

    Are we on the threshold of a paradigm shift in scientific knowledge

    This sums it up well. We can do so much better than we are now.

    Are we on the threshold of a paradigm shift in scientific knowledge

    Wow, just wow. I have worked in health care for 5 years and have actually never heard this sort of criticism. Are you suggesting that all of us in healthcare volunteer and work for free? Do you also feel fire fighters, medics, police, etc profit off of others suffering? If none of us got...

    Good places to get rid of a body?

    Yep, enough anyway: 1)A few large Bones - All they ever found, they never confirmed the killers ate the body but that is the going theory. 2)Blood and hair - It was a night Janitor at a school who murdered a teacher. Spent all night flushing her but did not get the mess cleaned up in...

    Good places to get rid of a body?

    Based on 2 murders that happened in NM when I lived there: 1) Eat it 2) Chop it up and flush it down the toilet piece by piece Authorities never found much in either case.

    Jus thad shoulder surgery and my day was a living hell today.

    Vicodin = hydrocodone + tylenol (and it is an opiate) hydrocodone = well, hydrocodone So, they actually are the same thing. Vicodin just has the added tylenol. The only difference that might account for less pain relief is they were probably giving you too low of a dose. Hydrocodone is...

    Will 2-3 D-Con type mice poison bait blocks kill a dog?

    They wouldnt have even wasted time with activated charcoal etc. D-con exposures are generally treated with vit k injection and close monitoring of blood tests for a few weeks. FYI for everyone...to force a dog to vommit you can feed it a bit of hydrogen peroxide. It bubbles up in the stomach...

    Will 2-3 D-Con type mice poison bait blocks kill a dog?

    The active ingredient in D-Con rat poison is essentially a form of the blood thinner warfarin. It will cause the dog to bleed to death if not treated. The good news is that you CAN treat this easily if the dog is given a vitamin k shot at the vet. This ingestion does not have to be fatal...

    Chicago trip- Where do I get my pizza?

    Hands down... Best deep dish pizza in the world. Supposedly they even use bacon grease for the pans which gives it a nice crunchy crust unlike most deep dish. FYI: Get sausage...they layer it on in one giant slab on top. Nobody orders peperoni on pizza in chicago according to my family...

    What is the best beer you've ever had?

    You should go... Really cheap airfare these days and the euro has lost a bit of value lately. Traveling on the dollar is not as bad as it was. Cafe Gollem has 200+ beers, 95% of which are belgium ales and lambics. At 8-12% alcohol you are a bit limited on how much you can really drink...

    What is the best beer you've ever had?

    If you ever go to Amsterdam check out Cafe Gollem. They have the westvleteren 8 and 12 and so does the liquor store across the street. Here in Denver we have a Belgium Bar called Cheeky Monk that carries some rare stuff and so does Falling Rock Tap House occasionally. Funny thing is I...

    What is the best beer you've ever had?

    Just got back from Amsterdam and really enjoyed the belgium ales there. Usually prefer hoppy american pale ales, but this trip really helped me re-define the beer I enjoy: Favs: Westvleteren 8 and 12 - the 12 is considered by many to be the "best beer in the world". Its brewed in small...

    Doctors vs guns.

    There is more to that statistic than you might think IMO. Working in a hospital is like working at a restaurant. If people saw even a fraction of what "really happens" they would be shocked. While in healthcare we do an amazing job most of the time, there are moments that just blow my...
