HOLY COW!!!
...and i thought it was a satirical name-replacement!
I was thinking this is pretty lousy satire, it's a bit too obvious and then I clicked on the link.
HA HA HA HA HA
Looks like Billy G. is now trying to take the wind out of X-ers sails by doing self-satire.
Why do BG & Inge Pohl (I'm dating myself, can't remember the name of the dude she eventually hooked up with) scoff at "high places" of secular academia on the one side and then sing praises of those who reach its heights on the other?
i laughed it off until i saw that was the guys real name
i thought you were joking x-er. but i geuss that is really his name
I had just stopped by to get my weekly dose of Xer when, to my surprise, I come across a familiar name... THAT'S MY DOC!!! No wonder my mom likes him so much! There's no way I'm going to him again-I don't think I trust him any more.
just because patients drop their visits from 4.8 to 1.2 doesn't mean they aren't ill. it could mean, however, that they aren't getting medical care they need because their supposedly intelligent, scientifically minded physician is a prosylytyzing freak.
or, as i rather hope, it means that they are going elsewhere and are trusting him only to remove bowel compactions and ingrown toenails.
qoe, thanks.
When were you involved with ATI(A)?
I recall hearing a cassette of a session Inge then-Pohl led on burnout in homeschooling moms. My own mother was so depressed (clinically but untreated) so much of the time, I now suspect because of things profoundly wrong in the family. At the time I was really angry that someone who DIDN'T HAVE KIDS would treat serious problems so lightly and throw "burnout" around as a buzzword. Our mom was mentally and emotionally absent yet still being pressured to pump out more babies.
Uh, sorry for the off-topic rant ...
So does anyone know if any ATIer has actually become a doctor through apprenticeship, without going to medical school? That's what Billy G. (not Billy B!) promised me I could do when I was at HQ in January '88.
The last attempt of which I am aware was the MTIA Health Care Consultant program which did not succeed in making anything more than impotent counselors who found real vocations or are currently in medical or nursing school.
Well, ok I just have to add a good word for Dr. Boring... I worked with him breiefly under two different circumstances, and I have to say that he has got to be one of the nicest, most dedicated, caring and knowledgable docs around. I went out to dinner at a nice restaurant with him and his wife and they were so generous and truly friendly. Totally took a genuine interest in me as a person. Also, I have never seen anyone so well-known and liked; during dinner at least 10 different people (patients, I assume) came up to him and talked like they were old friends. Don't knock him cause he reccommends the basic seminar... he's a dang good doc, and a great guy too. It's the Insty's claims that are to be knocked, ya know.
Oh yeah, he didn't choose his name, either. ;)
