My favorite part of the PDR was the filmy sheets in the front, sm

especially the drugs are listed categorically. For instance, if you heard a drug but couldn't quite get it but knew it was for (for example) Parkinson's disease, you could look it up under "antiparkinsonian drugs." Drake & Drake has a similar book, XRef.

I'd love to use the Internet more but I can only get dialup in my area and it takes waaaaay too long. Books are faster for me.

As far as Sherlock Holmes is concerned, I was more of an Inspector Clousseau.

Later!

Subject: My favorite of all time is a Sony. sm

Sony BM 820. Kind of pricy but really really the best. I used to type 7 days a week on this baby. Still have it.


 


Another cheaper one is Pearlcorder T100. It is okay but I tended to jerk the light little thing around on my desk. Also the ERASE button is right next to the other ones, so I used to tape a bottle cap over it so as not to reach over and ruin myself!!!!!

GENERAL DATA BASE INFO SITES ETC:

http://www.emedicine.com/ — this is my personal favorite. A lot of time when you Google a condition, like "diaphragmatic hernia" it will bring up E.medicine.com article. These articles give the alternate names, treatments, etc. Great source.

Subject: to put a comma in front of 'and that' is definitely wron.g.sm

Why would you do that? Since when do you put a comma in front of 'that', the less in front of 'and that'.

The sentence structure in the second part is wrong, it does not make any sense, so I corrected it in my other post.

not sure about the first, but the second part may be right
Subject: not sure about the first, but the second part may be right

It is possible he is saying "of five to seven inches" or "site of seven inches" but that still leaves the first part.  If it's the first one it sounds like "muce" or "moose" or "meese".  For the second one it would end in an "a" sound like "meesa site"  It sounds like he's saying "uh" in front of that, like he's thinking.  But maybe it's part of the word "ameesa site" or something like that.  And then again, maybe it's not even an "m".  Could be an "n" or something else.  I feel like I'm getting closer.  I just wish he didn't have to talk so fast!  Actually, you suggested adhesion and I just thought of "adhesive site".  It doesn't sound like an "h" really, but would that make sense?  "a moderate to severe adhesive site of seven inches with the radiation therapy?"  Seven inches!  That's really long.
