And I don't drive, so it was public transport or expensive taxis. Then we had governments who decided to remove services from most hospitals and centralise them in specific ones. But they can't centralise the patients, too, though they'd probably like to. I just had to do this all myself, yesterday. An hour of travelling for a (painfully early in the day) hospital appointment, because the local hospital (5 minute drive away) doesn't do those kind of things. On the bus back I ended up chatting with a Vietnam vet who'd been to a service for his friend. They get a rougher trot than any other veterans in this country, even now. Getting back to zoom, there's probably someone on this list in a similar timezone to you that you could do some trial runs with. I'm in Australia, so it doesn't match up well with the US, time-wise, and I've never used zoom. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1127.18.2.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Jul 26 15:27:06 UTC 2020 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
