I don't know that I'd draw attention to myself with this guy in any way, shape
or form. He may decide it's his "duty" to report her to the FAA if he knows
she's a pilot. Better to just drop off the radar.


Obviously he's an idiot, since 1) fatigue has so many other causes and
2) I don't have depression, never have. This is just a bogus diagnosis.


There are plenty of idiots out there practicing to be sure. I work in a county
hospital and our doctors run the gamut from the seriously gifted to those I
wouldn't bring my parakeet to see. I occasionally work with one internist who
regularly asks me what *I* think is going on with the patient, not to include me
as a feel-good exercise, but because he truly has no idea.

OTOH, I work with a surgeon that I don't think there is another one on this
planet who is his peer... and this is a little county hospital. The bottom line
is that just because the name ends in MD doesn't mean he's necessarily correct.
Somebody has to bring up the rear of the class.
