you mean that all those T tube bottles I had to measure and  empty back in 
the 70s were actually worse than useless? who would have thunk  it?

Quite honestly, having undergone a lap choly back in 2000, and  comparing my 
experience as a subject of this 'simple procedure'  compared to what was being 
done when I was in Medical School or even Residency,  much less back in the 
days when I was pushing bedpans, I am always amazed at how  far we have come in 
the last 30 years!

May the folks out there doing the research needed to improve  the current 
standards to match the improvements of the last thirty years  have as much 
logarithmic success as the folks on whose shoulders they  stand!
