Please provide the data supporting your claim that AAs "can do it better most of the time". Title of study, date of publication and journal title would be helpful. The A$A already supports AAs but it looks like they are being left behind...I'll say you can't have it both ways. As far as AAs fighting hard, pure rubbish. The A$A is fighting hard with A$A PAC money, or at least it has been. Future A$A PAC money might need to be spent propping up the A$A membership while the anesthesia amateurs (AAs)get left in the dust. Read Lema, no mention of any place at the table for AAs.
