substanceP said:oh it was great! very thought-provoking. i don't know if you ever read tolkein as a kid, but that movie reminded me of this one passage in the fellowship of the ring.
"Many that live deserve death, and some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement, for even the very wise cannot see all ends."
EctopicFetus said:Please explain?
substanceP said:but i've gotta wake up to round at 4am (ob-gyn till january 27th), so it'll have to do for now....
substanceP said:sorry, i assumed you already knew the gist of the movie. it's based on true events. during the 1972 olympics in munich, several armed palestinians took members of the israeli olympic team hostage. long story short, everyone (hostage takers and hostages) were killed. the movie is about how israel decided to deploy a team of mossad agents (israeli secret service) to find and kill the people who were responsible for planning munich. what makes this movie great is watching the gradual change in the team leader as he realizes the gravity of the task he is given and the implications of it's consequences. hmm, i don't know if that does a good job of explaining why the movie reminded me of that quote, but i've gotta wake up to round at 4am (ob-gyn till january 27th), so it'll have to do for now....

EctopicFetus said:I have to ask you guys a semi-serious Q.. (I know who woulda thunk it?)
So as many of you know I am an MS4 and I think my screen name might be considered offensive as I start residency. I have another (less offensive) screen name. Do you think this is a reasonable thing to be concerned with?

I think EctopicFetus is a suitable name for an ER doc, after all, how many times will you have to differentiate between an appy and an ectopic pregnancy at 4 AM once you are in the ER?turtle said:Keep the name! Just change residencies and do OB/GYN 😀
