Ok, Outkast, heres the deal: The only time I used the word "we" was when I said that the vast majority practice in the clinical realm. But forgive me for when I used "we" but I will most definitely officially be part of that "we" someday. In the mean time, I have thousands and thousands of hours of clinical (anesthesia) experience, and I'm playing a HUGE roll in passing legislation for my state.
By the end, I even told 'ole Henry to do it; to go to school, then start writing and do what makes him happy. But I just want to make it clear that there is a HUGE difference between being out of the OR (being active in contributing to research and publication articles) and using the Masters degree to supplement your income because you are money hungry. Maybe I'm being crazy here, but I didn't think that writing press releases to supplement income was the same as being active in research and publishing your research. He (Curious/Henry) SPECIFICALLY said he wants to take jobs for biomed firms and write press releases-then someday have ghostwriters.
None-the-less, if thats what he wants and gets in, then great for him, but Id rather be active in anesthesia-based research/publications-not using my degree to do something else.
PS-Henry...Hondas are good cars.
