Science & Mathematics - 29 December 2006

I ask a question 5 days ago regarding information on laser spine surgery. WELL...I am 2 days post operative and the nerve pain is GONE!! All I see are smiles, looks of relief on patients faces and I am one of those. I walked, pain free, out of the clinic on the day of the procedure. I am to have a 2nd procedure on the 3rd as I had 2 levels of injury. Conventional surgeons wanted to do 2 fusions, 1 yr recovery and never the same. Best decision I ever made.

I'm curious about fields of study, companies, or even books that one could look into that would allow one to combine electrical engineering (undergrad in progress) with a love of fishkeeping.

I realize this 3rd dimension we live in, and the conprehension of the 5th dimesion is something 3rd dimensional beings were not meant to understand. So by adding to the collective consciousness my curiosity and alert awareness may be recognized by one of these beings. I know that they exist but at higher levels of understanding.

You can be in the sea, or even attacked by a grumpy elephant, gorged by a charging rhino, but none of man's inventions should intervene. Direct attacks only. Nothing like sneaky rabbit burrows that can cause you to go plummeting over the edge of a cliff. Drowning counts if you get your foot stuck in a giant clam or attacked by a monster crab.
