    Doing a phd in physics (not many people in science around here, why is that so :D).


    Not having been around the EB scene for a while, I was gladly suprised to see that EB 1.0 is out, guess I'll try it in the next few days.


    Anyways, cheers for the team after such a monumental effort

    Well everything seems to drown in the torrent of history and archaeology people around here. Kind of natural to have a lot of those in a historically minded mod of a (slightly) historically minded game.

    Looks like the science people here are mostly some biotechies and a bit of geography and physics. I wonder where the chemistry people are hiding...

    Been to:

    Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.

    A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?

    -btw Zak, take SICKO with a grain of salt man, u know Moore has the unfortunate tendency to spin things to the left instead of staying in the center. I gotta rent it though, and see what he says about Cuba, I lived there, have famility there, (my mom is there now visiting) and I know BS when I see it.

    BTW (for those who don't live int he US, or live here but forgot) in the US you will NOT be denied health care. HOWEVER, if your not "under 18, or broke poor (recieves food stamps, etc), or dependent with a broke guardian" you will have to pay it AFTER care was given. Not before. If you don't pay it ur credit score get screwed up pretty bad.

    -Now if u don't have health insurance, ur not any of the above 3, and ur injury does not require immidiate assistance you WILL have to wait a rather long time.

    I'm doing a BA in Economics at York University.

    I can also answer some of the rumors about our health care system since I live in Canada. First of all, it's NOT "free". I believe as much as 10% of the government budget goes to health care. That money comes from taxes. I don't like paying for old people's "health care" too much. I didn't use the system in years. I have flues, colds, so what. I don't endanger anyone.

    And there's the "9 month waiting list" rumor. Yes, in some areas this is true. If you want to get a kidney replaced, or a new heart, some waiting lists extend into 9 months. But most of these people are old people who have already had 2 kidneys replaced probably, and while "life and death" they're just trying to dodge death. People die from kidney or heart failure people! It's a cause of death. A lot of people abuse the system, why not. It's the tragedy of the commons. I know friends who as soon as they feel bad about anything they go see the doctor. That includes getting drunk the night before, go see a doctor everything will be fine!

    As for socialized health care doctors not caring, wow! Do you prefer a doctor who only cares after you pay him?

    The best health care is good lifestyle choices. Don't eat Macdonald's for lunch then when you're 50 and have all kinds of health problems you give the bill to the younger generation.

    Hey a few of us then, I'm in my second year of BA Business Studies at Plymouth University (the original Plymouth, not some dodgy American town or something!)
    Also we have the NHS here in the UK, but no way am I getting involved in this, far too prickly a subject for the EB forums imho :)

    Not really if you're Dutch; but I can see where you come from so to speak.

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
    Algemene Wet Bijzondere Ziektenkosten

    Pronounced:

    A (as in the French la) W (as way) B (as bay) Z (as set with a z instead of s)

    Meaning:

    "Common Law (for) Special Costs due to illness"


    Mind you, ever thought it funny how retarded half the English vocabulary sounds? As if they are all either country bumpkins with some terrible speech disorder? Or as if they are all trying to speech with a very hot potato in their mouth?

    went to Penn State for Microbiology, then Pennsylvania hospital(philly) for medical technology, then Johns Hopkins for Perfusion. I currently work as a perfusionist in Dover, Delaware...moved from Alabama. Perfusionists operate the heart-lung machine during open heart surgeries. Currently, when not in the O.R. i try to crush my enemies, see them driven before me, and hear the lamentations of their women as either the SAKA,SWEBOZ,HAYASDAN, and most recently SAUROMATAE.

    I finished college 2 years ago, then served two years in the army, and am now preparing to go to York University in the UK to start my history BA course in autumn. Hoping to do my Masters as well, and learn either Ancient Latin or Greek while there.
