2010 EMS STATE OF THE SCIENCE:
Gathering of Eagles XII
Friday Morning, February
26, 2010
*Former
Surgeon General’s Warning: Do not set
the following times in stone (or any other material). The Eagles notoriously do
not run on time and are often ahead of schedule despite valiant past efforts by
some errant faculty members to run over or add in rim-shot jokes (a.k.a.
“groaners”). Also, if you are elderly (definition = anyone 15 years older than
yourself), have uncontrolled high blood pressure, or are subject to vertigo,
dizziness, heart disease or are prone to take yourself too seriously or if you
are offended easily (or if you easily offend others), you may not want to
attend this conclave.
