Preparation

(cont'd)

I don't think I have much to say on what happened with an autistic hematologist on Saturn (and his discussion with certain malicious nephrologist). It seems that they might wish to do away with some lectures in the final year in order to free up time for bedside teaching - or simply for pondering and rumination.

They decided to do regular lectures in that two weeks.

Which lectures ? The task was then passed to Jupiter; the administrator there went out and asked each and every division head if they wish to take up some.

Naturally, all of them gave an overly positive reply - that's a knee jerk response but also a primary principle to run an empire !

Our friend on Jupiter then passed the task of fixing up the timetable to a subordinate on Mars. Alas, the only thing that this poor official could do was to squeeze all suggested topics into that 8 hours a day, 5 days a week. (Seriously, do you think you could go and ask some division heads to cut back on their lecture ?)

What's the actual result on earth ? It is not a spoon-feeding, but bowel preparation.
