Willful ignorance is indeed a lifestyle deeply rooted in the American culture, widespread and praised from elementary schools to the boards of directors of multinational companies: "one can't make an omelette without breaking eggs" is a sentence I eared over and over again, and over and over again I witnessed appreciation for a job done in a "quick and dirty" way.
76,851,910 Americans gave PE mandate to "break eggs" like there's no tomorrow and, given in his total ignorance and his infantile delirium of omnipotence and narcissism, PE possesses unique qualities to dutifully accomplish this task.
POTUS no. 48 will have the thankless task of putting back together the rubbles that no. 47 left behind, and right the ship before it sinks in a sea of manure.
It's just another chapter of ordinary madness in the extraordinary history of the United States of America.
Sorry I believe that is totally wrong. The conditions where the elephants are being trained to be used, will be where vehicle access is not possible and helicopter access will depend on availably, limited landing sites due to tree canopies, lack of long line operations capability and prevailing weather conditions.
When under these conditions, rescuers will have to access the incident site on foot and carry all rescue equipment and medical equipment with them , hence needing a lot more rescuers to cope with the workload.
Carrying even a 70kg casualty on a stretcher any distance on uneven steep terrain in wet under foot conditions is a difficult challenge.
Yes there is the logistics problems of getting an elephant to the scene, when it is outside their normal area, so deployment will be limited, but when vehicle/helicopter access is not available, elephants could prove to be an asset and would in certain conditions, speed up the rescue response.
Yes, thought that was a bit silly myself. Although, it wasn't during normal hospital hrs, and the kidney doc, has his private 'clinic' at the hospital, after hours. He is my GP.
Never been charged that for hospital visits during the day. But also would be and all day affair, just to get to see the doc to get the blood test referral, which quite possibly, would have been denied, since I had all the blood work done just last February.
Even my GP was hesitant, till I told him I stopped the statin & changed my diet. He usually schedules / refers me to anything I want. Even did an whole abdominal CT Scan (15k ?), earlier in the year, because I wanted it done, just for the hell of it. Most docs will hardly refer an ultrasound, especially since I get one about every year.
