Thanks Rhonda.  I actually like House mainly because he is so far out and says some things I think we would all love to say at times to some of the Docs we know.  It is by far the most outrageous of the ones people believe are real.  

We had CSI day at the Region 2 NSH meeting and it was packed.  Two friends from the New Jersey State Police Lab came and talked about how different and boring their work is comapred to to TV which as they said very clearly "THIS IS NOT WHAT WE DO -- wE RARELY EVEN GO TO CRIME SCENES"
