 All due respect to Mike, as he is an experienced clinician, but I've also 
seen many people get so hung up on the numbers that they miss the forest for 
the trees.  A good clinician is both an artist AND a scientist.  But then I 
already said that...

Well, Mike isn't here to defend himself,  and I regret, now, having brought 
up his name for what I should have expected to be your kneejerk criticism. 

I've spent many hours with Mike, at both endurance events and in the clinical 
situations. I've sopent no hours with you, except here on TV, so I can't 
critique your decisions. Mike's, though, are intelligent.
