What they teach in medschool is to use your brain, not the collective knowledge. If you are so confident in your self-diagnosis, just talk to the doctor and let him challenge your reasoning -- you'll see that even if your conclusion was correct, this was a shear luck. Wikipedia may be good for trivial things (diagnosing a running nose in your terms) or reading about the comparison between email clients, but is completely misleading in more sophisiticated problems. This is because people who could actually improve it are way to busy / don't care to do so. -- Leonid Isaev GnuPG key ID: 164B5A6D Key fingerprint: C0DF 20D0 C075 C3F1 E1BE 775A A7AE F6CB 164B 5A6D
