I just got back into town, from a weekend of waiting in lift lines
(Actually not to bad for holiday weekend.)

Now catching up on the news here, I think I am going to die waiting in
line, for rick and KMAN to figure out what line we are waiting in. So
where do I get this refreshing elixir of life at? TnT

How come? Was it some kind of socialized ski hill? As to the elixir:
only Wolfgang seems to know.

Hope you had a good time.

All sounds good, but I think I'll pass on Kennie's place. Bud? That's
the best he can do?

Are these your personal preference, or just known reference points. I
may have missed it, but you did not reference anything near Denver.
That would be a big help. Thanks, TnT

I'll take the liberty of assuming that is a question. You know how people
are always saying there's no such thing as a stupid question?
Well......guess what.

Define "near".

Thanks, TnT

You're quite welcome.

You know, I'm beginning to think you're toying with me.

I resent that

Go to Newfoundland. It is called "screech." However, if you drink the
screech in a remote area of Newfoundland and get sick as a result and would
like a very specific type of scan but you are not in an emergency situation
you may have to wait to get the scan.

Interestingly enough, it was named "screech" because an American was unable
to handle it, and he "screeched" so loud that people came running from all
around to see what had happened.

KMAN, you might be interested in the following:

http://www.scp.nl/publicaties/boeken...formance_3.PDF

pages 120-180... a detailed, intelligent, analysis/discussion of
healthcare systems.

One excerpt of note:
"The optimum outcome of this trade-off for non-urgent curative care
will be a
waiting time somewhere between zero and a few months. Research has
shown that
short waiting times for this type of care cause very little
deterioration in health,
while the costs of care increase sharply if such treatments have to be
performed
without waiting time. Furthermore, it appears that patients do not
strongly object
to waiting a short time for non-urgent treatment (scp 2003: 123).
However, waiting
times are still regarded as unpleasant and spark public debate."

Anyway, KMAN, thought this might be of interest.
