Was reminded of that today at lunch. We have discovered a great little sandwich shop in Bowness called 'The Lazy Loaf and Kettle' and today I watched a group of six medical students sitting at a corner table, going over case studies with great enthusiasm. Next to them was what I thought a bum.
Fat and disheveled, he was eating and reading a newspaper. Suddenly, he stood up, went over to the group and said, "I gather you are med students from Foothills." "Yes," they answered. He then put a couple of diagnostic questions to them. Silence ensued. "I have no idea," said one. "Neither do I," said another. Dr. ? then gave them the answer. "Wow, I would never have got that," they all admitted. They were amazed. Dr. ? laughed and left.
It was very cool and showed me I had judged someone incorrectly -- which I admit I do all the time. I said to B, "These are the people who will be looking after us very soon."
We all learned something today.
