High Tech Advances In Medicine.

In the old days, my doctor would write me a prescription and I would take it the pharmacy. And then, within a day of so, I would pick up my medicine. But now a days, they send it over electronically. And when the pharmacy receives it, they send me emails with status updates. And when it works, it works great. However, when it doesn’t work, it may take several days to figure out where it failed. Unfortunately it fails way too many times. But such is high tech.

Ice Shelves

This time of the year, we get ice shelves on the great lakes. Basically, they are formed by waves and snow on the shore line. Over time, these shelves can extend several thousands of yards out on to the lake. And since they are not level, it is possible to fall from one shelf to another and get stranded on the ice. So, beware. Just because it looks safe, don’t assume that it is safe.
