Mark Rabiner Regarding Eric and Mark's exchange about dogs being "fixed"... It's a concept I always get a laugh out of...When people ask me if my dog was fixed, I tell them, no, everything was working fine - so we had her broken.... ;-) Along the same lines, a terrific anesthesiologist I know makes a point of telling all his trainees, colleagues, etc., to NEVER tell a child going into surgery that he or she will be "put to sleep." All they know about being "put to sleep," he says, is that when Fido went to the vet to be "put to sleep" he came home in a cardboard box and got buried in the garden. B. D.
