That seems crazy to me, and one would hope that someone in the healthcare profession would be smart enough to realize what a dumb idea that would be. Hopefully, I will never need this man's services.<br><br><br />I believe being a writer (a true published author) requires the same amount of brain power (if not more) than doctors, lawyers, or even rocket scientists.
