A few of us had a short discussion about this Thursday off-list. The  general 
consensus was that you probably did not mean to offend anyone. I  concured 
with the consensus. Apology absolutely accepted. Accept my own  in return. I am 
aware that I screwed up. I sure wish I would read my own post  before 
replying-it's not like it's in front of me or anything.
 
Please keep in mind that there are many people on the mailing list and  many 
points of view on the things you write. You will probably get to read  some 
knock-down-drag-outs if you hang around long enough. Lord knows there  have have 
been 'heated arguments' over little more than semantics. There are  times 
when I feel like the list is like a bunch of sharks circling, waiting  for the 
first scent of fresh blood. You'll see what I mean eventually. 
 
Anyway. Welcome to our little slice of heaven. And don't kill any  patients 
because you were to busy posting to read their  charts!!!!!      (Not that  I'm 
talking from experience....really....it's never  happened.....uh...really....)

    Thanks guys. So you all live near each other or  talk on the phone? 
That's cool. I don't mind being knocked down or draged out as  you put it. It's not 
like I am going to let it ruin my day. When someone says  something I don't 
understand I am not affraid to ask what they meant. And I do  accept your 
appology eventhough you have nothing to appologize for. 
    As for the patients; I work in orthopaedics for a  new PA (fresh from 
school like me) so she doesn't get too many patients  yet.
    And I kinda found my answer to the kethna question.  I don't have the 
quote in front of me but I am sure you can all figure out where  it's from: It in 
_Teckla_ when Vlad is speaking to Parish, or rather Parish is  telling his 
story. He mentions having a kethna farm and that he has to feed them  corn. So I 
think they are more on the poultry side.
    Thanks again for all of you understanding!

P.S. What does the "OD" stand for?
