After listening for a few minutes, I could tell you and Dr. A. apart, but with Kevin, I'm still not sure who said what.<BR/><BR/>It was great listening to you.

You know i am a surgical groupie now. I actually think if i had it to do over again that I would want to be an OR tech...something where I could see this stuff first hand.<BR/><BR/>The writer's strike worked in my favor or I would have missed the show. :)<BR/><BR/>You all came across great! I could tell the difference between you and Dr A and you all have better accents then this east coast girl. Funny how with accents...it depends what ears you are hearing with.<BR/><BR/>My d-i-l is from Ohio and I love her little accent. i think that you Dr S being from Washington state you have a great accent as did everyone else. I don't think of my self as an east coast accent because I think of that as being people from NYC (hour from here)or Jersey City, Long Island,etc., and yet hearing myself in comparison to all of you I detected it but not as strong as what I perceive an east coast accent to be. Also, I think a lot of us talk faster too. I spent a few days in Fairhope/Mobile Alabama and without realizing it i came back drawing out my words (impressionable I guess) so I would say 'you k-n-o-w-w-w" and then my husband pointed it out and I stopped.<BR/><BR/>Smitten, Bongi...I tell you smitten by your wonderful accent and voice! :)<BR/><BR/>The chatters were really funny! Next week I will turn the light on before I type! Haha!<BR/><BR/>Oh and talk about multi-tasking! While on the line waiting to speak with you guys, i was trying to listen to the show, follow the chat and keep track of the show on the phone which is ahead of the show on the air and so THAT was interesting. <BR/><BR/>I am so glad Dr A started doing this. He is a pioneer. This blogging hobby is the bestest ever! ;)SeaSprayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07906503090688697222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30499448.post-85476301631234197412008-02-08T12:13:00.000-08:002008-02-08T12:13:00.000-08:00Cr@p!

I liked how you called surgery "mystifying and amazing" and a privilege. I also found it so interesting that you were also interested in psychiatry because reading your blog has helped me to psychologically heal from some of the after effects of my surgeries. Cool! You ARE a very good writer with a great choice of words, and you're modest! Goodness!
