Here are some real questions for you OP:

(1) What skills do you think everyday people should know in order to save lives? I've always thought it would be a good idea to take some kind of emergency health training. Obviously CPR is one of these - what else? Other things to look for (taking vital signs, for example)

(2) What separates an EMT from a Paramedic from a full out doctor?

(3) Do you have a lot of back pain from lifting fat people on stretchers?

[/ QUOTE ]

1. I don't really know. I guess you could learn, basic cpr. Would be a good idea.

2. Paramedic is just an industry term not used anymore. Doctors have a lot more schooling than EMT's. EMT job is to provide immediate medical care and try to ship them to the doctors asap.

3. I don't know. Sometimes my back hurts, sometimes not. I guess it depends on what you define as a lot of back pain.

Your answers show that you don't have a clue what you are talking about. Are really an EMT or just like pretending to be one?

I guess you could read the post before asking questions. I already stated I am not an EMT. But have watched TV shows on it and thought about becoming one.

Any other questions not already asked?

While we're waiting you should ask me about being a dinosaur. I'm not a dinosoaur of course but I watched Jurassic Park like 3 times.

Is there a more severe punishment than a ban? Could we set up a 2+2 kick in the face squad? I'd seriously be willing to donate money for that, provided I'd get a significant vote...

Did NT get his internet disconnected? It's been several hours since I last visited OOT. I would have expected this to be locked.

How do you start an ask me thread.. and then not have an answer for the first question.

It wasnt hard and didnt require a statistician, merely experience.
