    You dont learn this stuff by "practice" you learn by
    experience.................thats the only way! You need to react as second
    nature, and not think about what you are doing.

    _Over_ the armco I'd have been fine with, it was _into_ it that didn't
    agree with me.

    This is the first time I've ever injured myself apart from grazes and
    bruises. The last big-ish spill I had was in 1980 when I hit the side
    of a car who pulled out from a side road without looking while I was
    filtering past stationery traffic. Over the top, bent the forks,
    bruised my thigh. Other than that they were all slide-offs or similar,
    the most recent being two years back when I laid the bike down to
    avoid hitting a "priorité à droit" cage driver.

    So if I've been lucky, it's that those mistakes I have made have been
    recoverable.
    I didn't take it personally, but I'm absolutely convinced that having
    got to the corner at the speed I did there was no way anyone could
    have avoided an accident.

    Nope, well maybe Champ who I think you hold in high regard. But you
    weren't the potential audience I was thinking about.

    Cheers, and thanks for the SMSs too.
    I'd have been better off without them in some ways, cos I know there's
    no way I'd have been riding like that had I been wearing jeans,
    trainers and a tee-shirt.

    1mg usually with a 5 minute lockout. There is an option to deliver stat
    doses from the clinician [1]. Depending on the size, I've set one PCA
    with a 2mg dose with a 5 minute lockout, but that patient was large.

    We also don't usually set a continuous infusion either.

    Either way, after the 5mg per hour infusion, you would have had a fairly
    decent dose.

    The good thing about morphine is that there is no upper limit to the
    amount you can have. If you are still in pain, you can have more.
    There was a general misconception a while ago in UK hospital [2] that
    you could only have 10mg ever 4-6 hours and nothing more. At least now
    they appreciate the fact that you can get more when in pain.

    I have personally given 20mg within 10 minutes to a janitor after
    surgery to a broken arm that had been fixed.

    Higher than some on here, perhaps, but not that high that I'd
    seriously be influenced by anything he said.
    OIC.

    This is surfing, right?
    Have you tried surfing in slalom canoes or on surf skis? it rocks

    Well Tony is right in one thing. If you vote in a leader approved off by
    the Unions, get ready to twiddle your thumbs in opposition.

    She was down in France I recall, writing device drivers for HP or some
    such. But that was a long time ago.

    It's the same in cages with traction control/ABS/airbags.

    people who misguidedly believe in the utopian ideal of a
    sociologically-based future society, rather than accepting the
    overwhelming evidence from the science of evolutionary psychology
    which indicates a social contract is the only workable solution?

    What did I win?

    Hey, you credit me with a wish to change society. I just want to have
    sex with pretty ladies.

    I think I may have made a mistake sometime in the early eighties.

    A prize. I'm sorry we couldn't return your picture.

    I merely answered your question, with no intended implication about
    your own intentions, my good man.
    Well, me too.
    didn't we all?
    keep it, with thanks.

    That's the threat that's been put out. Which is as much as saying "if we
    don't give the British public more of the same we're sunk". Then I say
    we're sunk and it's time to deliver the changes we should have in 1997.

    The other point is the vote is divided into three sections - the PLP
    (MPs, MEPs etc), the CLP (the party members) and the affiliated
    organisations (Co-ops, Unions etc.)

    All of which are based on one member one vote. In the case of the
    affiliated Unions we have to ballot all our members and the total votes
    are aggregated across all organisations.

    So if a leader other than Brown was delivered by the CLPs and Affiliates
    of many million people that would be more representative than the couple
    of hundred in the PLP who know "best".

    I agree with your last point completely. Brown isn't going to be a long
    term vote winner for NL. Reid would be even worse.
    I suggest you recruit Cameron, after all he is trying to reform the TP
    into new New Labour, betting that old New Labour is going to lurch
    violently to the left.

    As for your 1st point, if Tony had found a WMD program in Iraq or had
    even just kept Saddam's army/police force intact and reformed it
    gradually, so he would be riding on a wave of public adulation right
    now. He tried the Thatcher plan but failed to win the war quickly and
    cleanly.
