bash the USA From: Shell Walker (birthfirst@msn.com) Wed Jun 7 10:16:29 2006 Messages sorted by: [ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ] Next message: Richard Chudacoff, MD: "Re: Informed consent" Previous message: Larry Glazerman: "Re: Informed consent" Next in thread: RModugno@aol.com: "Re: bash the USA" Maybe reply: RModugno@aol.com: "Re: bash the USA" Thought this was kind of interesting: A recent article in Newsweek regarding falling "Total Fertility Rates" in Europe and Japan, reported this: "A survey by the National Opinion Research Center at the University of Chicago asked respondents in 33 countries to react to this statement: "I would rather be a citizen of (my country) than a of any other." Among Americans, 75% "strongly" agreed; among Germans, the French and Spanish, comparable responses were 21 percent, 34 percent and 21 percent, respectively." It is loosely suggested that negative 'country satisfaction' may be linked to falling Total Fertility Rates. A population needs a total fertility rate of 2 in order to replace itself. 2005 Total Fertility Rates: U.S- 2.1 Germany- 1.4 Greece- 1.3 Italy- 1.3 Japan- 1.4 Poland- 1.2 Russia- 1.3 -- Shell Walker L.M > ----- Original Message ----- From: Bernard Cristalli To: Multiple recipients of list OB-GYN-L Sent: Tuesday, June 06, 2006 10:56 PM Subject: Re: Informed consent - bash the USA No, they turn in their grave if they see that. BTW the other military cemeteries are just as emotional. There are plenty of them in Normandy, US and German, English or others in their own soil given till the end of times. Dr Eberhard Lisse a écrit : That may be so, but they neither died from hot coffee nor for defending the US legal system, 60 years ago. el on 6/7/06 7:17 AM Bernard Cristalli said the following: US cemeteries in France (actually they're US soil) are the most beautiful gardens around. The Colleville one (Omaha beach) is probably the biggest in Europe. These places are very emotional.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
