WhatEVER are you talking about? When's the last time you saw a
silver-haired doctor? I see pictures of them in the newspaper every

advance of medicine renders many specialists - including many Surgeons -
obsolete within 20 years.

For that matter, large numbers of Specialists have elected to revert to
being GPs simply because of the insanely-high Malpractice Insurance
Premiums demanded for their specialities. [Neurosurgery, for example]
