Happy birthday, and link to post about emergency medicine

[beowabbit]

Happy birthday to ghoti72! (Thanks to LJ’s new friends’ birthdays feature, I’m going to be much better about remembering birthdays from now on.)

And on another topic, the wonderful and deeply good docorion posted to his journal a letter he wrote to a mailing list for emergency physicians in response to a thread about “overuse” of emergency departments for routine care by people on Medicaid. If you know docorion, you pretty much know what his perspective is, and if you don’t, you should read it and find out. He totally rocks.

It's what I use for my morning post - gives you the day's birthdays right there on the update page!

Indeed, I'm in Ottawa. However, I will be leaving very soon (next week) and possibly for good. I suspect we might... I know some people in the poly community here, one of whom used to be in a Boston Poly community. (& that would be Elyse)

I'll be in Boston soon, as a matter of fact. My boyfriend's family lives there, so it's my last stop on the Eastern half of this continent for a while. (I'm leaving from there to Seattle.)

what's the difference between the new birthdays feature and their old birthdays feature?
