    I am sure it would help with minimally invasive (laparoscopic) surgery,
    where instruments often have to be moved in paradoxical ways, guideed only
    by high-definition monitor, without any depth perception and minimal sense
    of touch.

    I found it easier than some of my fellow surgeons, and attributed that to
    somewhat mispent spare time.

    To be honest, how anyone can do a microdiscectomy[sp?] is beyond me and
    yet it is done many times a day.

    head, pumping a whole clip into them and then watching them turn around and
    kill you with 1 shot!
    Suppose that's life really.
