Yes, I have, sort of. I'm a psychologist, and I have gone 'on site' to attempted suicides, hostage situations, and places where people had been 'traumatically injured' ... and I've 'save many lives' by going into what I always called 'intervention triage mode' ... I can 'look' at a HUGE area, and 'know' who needs treating first, and who may LOOK worse but can wait ... and I have done this so well professionally, that when some people crashed their car right outside where I lived, I just 'automatically' told the firemen and paramedics where to go and what needed doing first, second, and third. Afterwards, I asked the Captain WHY he hadn't just 'chased me off' and had his own 'triage person' do it. 'Why should I?' he said. 'It was obvious you knew what your were doing, and the case was bad enough we didn't want to waste a second.' I was FLOORED, because I've worked with both the Police and Fire Departments and they DO NOT LIKE TO SHARE. You asked about 'battle frenzy' and what I 'described' seems to be the opposite, but it's really not ... I don't 'think' when I'm 'onsite' ... I just DO, and it's usually 'the right thing.' I can't 'explain it' ... but my oldest son 'goes berzerk' when anyone he loves is 'threatened' and we've been told my many psychologists/psychiatrists that the 'battle frenzy/berserker' is actually a 'gentic condition' that is passed on ... which I think is 'really weird' in a wonderful way. My mom worked for the Air Force ... my grandmother was 'a spy' ... so I guess it is 'genetic.'

Yep. I'll explain, but you'll have to bear with me.
Okay, here goes nothing.
In seventh grade we studied ancient greece. my teacher had to idea to split our class into groups, named after city-states, and have a compition. I was in Athens, no means to be "forward" but the only compition Athens had was Sparta (poor Corinth and Argos, and....well, I can't remember, but that isn't important). Anyway, we had lots of challenges that could earn you points. In every single challenge, Athens either beat or tied Sparta. The last compition was the Olympics. Athens and Sparta were pretty neck-in-neck, so the winner of the Olympics pretty much decided the winner of the Compition.
Anyway, I was NOT GOING TO LOSE, it really wasn't an option--I mean, how humiliating wouold it be to lose to Jackson Nortun? The answer is VERY. So, Athens went out there and owned the Olympics. In the end, we won the compition and ALL OF THE BRAGGING RIGHTS.


Ahhhhhhh......the glory!
