    I suppose that we could extrapolate this to the dumbing down of the education system.

    If the doctors had known what the problem was, they would have given the baby antibiotics, but unfortunately they had no idea.
    Incompetence can be deadly. Sometimes I think we expect too much of docs. Sometimes I think they are clueless ****wits.

    Thanks a lot guys.

    It will be nice to be able to concentrate on the clientco's needs again and scale up the effort on Plan B. We are contractors, right :-)

    Thanks a lot, seriously.

    Children have this annoying habit of doing their own thing at their own time. It usually works out okay......
