Well, I know that pediatricians seem to be suspicious of surgeons, when they are in training. The reason that I mentioned the cut-downs is that, when I was rotating on Peter Rabbit Surgery, I had to do them all of the time. I'll never forget a real horror of a Pedi resident, hanging over my shoulder while I was doing one, finally saying, "you'll never get it done like that!" and the next second I had the catheter in and connected it to the IV bottle. I just said, "Why don't you regulate the drip, you're probably real good at that."
