I am by no means advocating ordering more, it's damned if you do, damned if you don't in our field. What kills me is Legislature seems unwilling (outside of Texas, anyways) to address this, with many clinging to the world is flat/global warming is made up/defensive medicine doesn't exist logic (or wait, maybe it costs $650 Billion a year, who knows?)
Still waiting for the day we consider No-fault in the US (while I drive my kids to school in our magical flying unicorn which bypasses all traffic).
