Aside from your personal inquiry and good wish, how does this relate to
rec.boats? Following that MRI, I'll be one of the few posters here who can
mount, actual, scientific evidence that yes, indeed, I do have a brain.

LOL, it is good to see you are keeping your humor. FYI, if you ever have to
have a MRI again, they now have "Open MRI". I don't have claustrophobia,
but because of RA I was not able to hold my arm in the proper position in
the closed MRI. The scan on my elbow took 45 min. to complete. In the open
MRI the field is only enclosed on the top and bottom of the area they want
to scan, and one side is always open. I actually slept through the
procedure.

On a serious note, if you find out discussion stressful I would prefer not
to add to your stress level.
