    According to a recent study, plaing them makes good
    surgeons.

    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.

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