46. Well, that took me about a minute to figure out who you were talking about.

I'm sorry that you lost a patient. And out of respect for you, I shan't post his name here.

Reading his obit, it's obvious that along with the bad things he did, there was a lot of good there.

Unfortunately he was a dinosaur.
