Nonetheless, keep the fifteen in your kit, it will make those one-handed self portraits in action possible and I can't wait to see them! With your experience in the operating room, at least as documented in your wonderful book, "This is Our Work..." I have no doubt that you could perform a one-handed caesarian section with an M6 firing away in the other hand.

But it ain't goin' to happen! Jeeeeesh I sure hope not! Well what the hell I've been around enough of them, birthings, I suppose I could do it if pressed into action. However, I'd much rather just be the recorder and not a participant! :-) ted
