Here it is.

I don't remember or could find any ????? about his quad bypass.

Oh, Guy, here is Chung. Ask away!

It the U.S., bypass surgery is commonplace. It is controversial whether all
the operations have and continue to be necessary. Dr. Rose and I have
debated this topic many times on SCM. Google should have these discussion
archived.

Some folks are blessed by God with the ability to grow good collateral
circulation unassisted.

Have my posts been vague? It has been my impression that most folks feel I
have been too blunt or too truthful.

Sure, fire away.

Am glad to be of service as God's humble servant.

Last I looked, some weeks ago when the recent round of crossposting
started, your entry on the public website for your state medical board
had not been updated to include this certification -- although I did see
it had been added to your website, and recalled that it wasn't there
when we first became aware of you by past crossposts (incidentally,
I don't believe you would add it falsely).

IIRC, the board site said something about the information being submitted
by the listed MDs themselves, so perhaps you forgot to have it updated,
or the update did not go through.

.....just thought you should know.

I believe his license also expires in December. Perhaps the state should be
aware of any complaints against the good "doctor?"

I write truthfully. Does that mean I expect you to write truthfully? No.

You ask folks questions when you do not expect the truth. Does that necessarily
mean Guy asks questions when he expects to hear a lie? Probably not.

Sounds more like an explanation for recent terrorist bombers.

Whether it's the IRA, or Moslem extremists, they all do evil thing
believing that God is on their side.

However, I do doubt that pedophile priests thought they were carrying
out God's will when they molested children.

Oh, they're part of it too, no doubt about it. Interestingly enough, Islam
was once well regarded for religious tolerance. I guess Pope Urban II,
Torquemada and rest helped put a stop to that, eh?

Actually, the IRA is a bit more complicated than that. They're more like
the early mafia in Italy.

Hmm, good point, but I wouldn't be surprised if they justified it to

In all candidness, how many folks did you overfeed and contribute to

it feel to live so luxuriously off their blood money?

I'll bet you would but, honestly and candidly, I feel it is important

Interesting but the truth is, having known several pedophilic priests,
some actually have deluded themselves into thinking exactly that.

I also ask folks questions to determine their ability to admit they don;t
really know the answer. its a much bigger person that can admit they don't
know than to just make something up to sound as if they do know...

so when you ask your patients if they are compliant with your instructions
relative to their treatment, do you always expect them to be totally
truthful? or will you question and weigh their reply with any other observed
facts to determine if they are telling the truth?
