If you worked for me, I would have you flag the report, as this will follow the patient forever if not correct. Some will sign anything. I once had an ESL dictate, "The patient drinks one and one-half six can beer per day." I am not a mathematician, could be one and one-half six packs but I am not about to "label" anyone. There are "alcoholics" who inherit the disease and there are "drunks" who will drink anything and keep on doing it even when told to stop for their own health. Give people a break, you wouldn't want your family "labeled". The disease itself is punishment itself. Those who stop are just as good as you and I, they had an allergy of the body and a desire of the mind, such as one would have for chocolate, etc., so don't sit in judgement, that's God's job. If someone has stopped, give them a high five, not a label.

Just my two cents.

What does a gallon of gas cost in YOUR town?
$2.39 here. Northwestern Wisconsin. It is pathetic.

Paid $2.69/gallon in So. Cal. today. (nm)

Our gas prices are just over $3/gallon and summer's coming!

I'll want to use my A/C in my car plus do a little extra driving in the summertime.

Right now it's costing me about $44 to $46 to fill my tank up. It HURTS!

Thinking about buying a bicycle to get around town on! lol

We just signed up for our propane for winter.. It's gone up a dollar per gallon...
from last year. There is no shortage of propane as far as I know. They just raise the price because they can. We're paying 1.89 per gallon. Thank goodness we have 2 wood stoves, but I'm sure a cord of wood will double too. . You can't win.

bush bashing? Do you like paying 5 bucks a gallon for gas? NM
