Back to medical for a moment .... so in "Eleventh Hour" which I watched (while working on some additional building projects), the FBI actually bursts into an operating room, guns drawn, with the patient open on the table, no masks ... nothing .... and the surgeon takes off his mask, and everyone is yapping at each other (with the OR door wide open) for several minutes. No other hospital personnel anywhere to be seen. Oh, right ... like that ever happens. Apparently we mustn't let good drama get in the way of reality. ![]() |

And last night on gray's Anatomy, which was on while I was reading Sourcery...
They had a bunch of pigs in a surgey lab that the residents were tasked with keeping alive after receiving stab wounds. No veterinarian or vet techs anywhere to be seen, just residents bonding with pigs. Animal lab is so warming with vets and VA's that you can hardly step to the side without stepping on one of them. And they are the ones who do the euthanasia, and the wounds, not the doctors. Sheesh! |

Thankfully I never seem to see too many IT professionals portrayed on TV or film

oh, that one is my personal favorite !! especially when they get footage from something like a security camera, and there's a vague smudge off in the distance (down at the other end of the alley) that *might* be the bad guy, running across the extreme edge of the camera's field, and they say "let me just clean that up for you" and the image is somehow transformed into a high-res perfectly focussed photo with no motion blur and not a single compression artifact. man, if only the photoshop "unsharp mask" worked like that !

One scene that remains burned into my memory was of a female CSI, (the blonde one with the grating whiny nasal accent, I think), crawling up the corridor of a house, gun drawn, after the bad guy. She sees a handgun on the floor so she scoops it up, stuffs it down the front of her jeans, and carries on crawling. Ouch - there goes the evidence. And no checking if the gun is safe! I imagined the damn thing going off and remodeling her lady parts. |

It is always possible to park directly outside any building you are visiting. A detective can only solve a case once he has been suspended from duty. If you decide to start dancing in the street, everyone you bump into will know all the steps. Most laptop computers are powerful enough to override the communication systems of any alien civilization. It does not matter if you are heavily outnumbered in a fight involving martial arts - your enemies will wait patiently to attack you one by one by dancing around in a threatening manner until you have knocked out their predessers. When a person is knocked unconscious by a blow to the head, they will never suffer concussion or brain damage. No one involved in a car chase, hijacking, explosion volcanic eruption or alien invasion will ever go into shock. Police Departments give their officers personality test to make sure they are deliberately assigned a partner who is their total opposite. When they are alone foreigners prefer to speak English to to each other. You can always find a chainsaw when you need one. Any lock can be picked by a credit card or a paper clip in seconds, unless it's a door to a burning building with a child trapped inside. An Electric fence powerful enough to kill a dinosaur will cause no lasting damage to an eight-year old-child. |

And (on television) police officers never seem to lock their cars.

Your clunker of a car will run perfectly for 40 years, until you are being followed on foot by a lunatic in a hockey mask wielding an axe. In which case, it will, of course, fail to start. |
