Ah, the good old days.

This reminds me a bit of my days as a poor graduate student, spending up to four hours in the chair being worked on by a dental student, waiting for a professor to check on the work. Only the outermost circle of hell compared to the inner circle of the past!

One day, we will look back on day with similar horror at chemotherapy, radiation therapy, surgery, and aging as barbaric. They will be right but we have to do our best with what we have while inventing better methods.
