Let's assume: I have to go to a hospital to get a surgical treatment.
Then I'm inside the operational theater. On the one side there is a
"well educated and credential" surgeon. On the other side there ist a
"self-selected group of people interested enough in surgical tools to
participate in a discussion of surgical tools". Whom will I count on,
when it comes to the selection of the proper surgical tool for
treating ME?
Additional information: I hope that I will come home safe and sound.
There is this wonderful word: When the rubber hits the ground ... ;-)
