Tom's Mishmashian Mayhem

In other words, a hodgepodge of totally unrelated topics randomly grabbed from the consciousness stream.

Watch Out for The Poison Pen

Did you see this article in Time

Seems that doctors kill about 7000 people every year with bad handwriting skills.

...And we all thought it was just another subject for another doctor joke!

G'Pa Scott	As the article stated, 'why hasn't this been done before'? I learned 30 years ago to trust the pharmacist, not the doctor. On the rare occasion that I require prescription drugs, I consult the pharmacist and make damn sure I was prescribed the correct formulation and dosage for my ailment. I also go online to WebMD and thoroughly investigate all pertinent information. Thanks for the link Tom, Cheers, Scott

Gary	Good Point Tom, It's just a reminder we are in charge of our health, not the doctor. We need to make sure what the say and do is best for our health.
