1.1.01.01.010: juggling after 4pm.

[This is pushed under everyone's door EXCEPT infirmary doctors and Snape. As he is harbouring a fugitive an infirmary doctor.]

This questionnaire is designed to research into the causes of so called 'Barge Comas' by collecting information and using it to either eliminate certain theories, or to find a pattern within the information provided. ( Read more... )

don't touch the suitcase, its a bureaucratic revolution!, 86% red alpha kthanx, not like the chair census, surprisingly competent, needs some loopholes, comas are the mildew here, don't mention the rot

Did you seriously just send me a form to fill out regarding barge comas?

Re: [Private] needshumility May 17 2011, 10:53:44 UTC

Yes, I did.

Is that a problem? You don't have to fill it in.

[Private] doctor_j_crane May 17 2011, 11:08:25 UTC

It's ridiculous. And unscientific. The only responses that you'll get are from people who obsess over the comas they've had.

Re: [Private] needshumility May 17 2011, 11:10:20 UTC

It's the only attempt so far into finding the cause. I'm not an expert, just doing what I can.

So if you want to recommend some ways I can improve my methods, please, do let me know. I'm always grateful for help. But if you just want to sit there and complain and not help at all, then don't waste my time.

[slipping into impoliteness, Eddie.]

Don't bother. It's not like you can change anything.

You haven't asked why the subject felt they fell into a coma. Normally they'll have their own justifications for it and that's potentially valuable information.

Re: [Private] needshumility May 18 2011, 10:40:42 UTC

I don't think that's true. It's worth trying, if only to find out the truth.

Isn't that potentially outrageously subjective, though?

[Private] doctor_j_crane May 18 2011, 11:12:26 UTC

I disagree, but you've clearly got nothing better to do.

Of course it is. But it still could be valuable. And you need all the information that you can get.

Re: [Private] needshumility May 18 2011, 11:17:23 UTC

People are just... dropping unconscious. I don't think there's much better to do than investigate.

you've got a point. I'll make sure it gets asked.

[Private] doctor_j_crane May 18 2011, 11:21:58 UTC

They seem to be fine, ultimately. Most even lack the after effects of a typical coma.

Good.

Re: [Private] needshumility May 18 2011, 12:32:35 UTC

Except for the fact that going unconscious for over a week is not fine.

[Private] doctor_j_crane May 18 2011, 12:35:40 UTC

Well, I can't deny that. It's very inconvenient.

Re: [Private] needshumility May 18 2011, 12:39:30 UTC

It could be more dangerous than it looks, for that matter.

[Private] doctor_j_crane May 18 2011, 12:41:42 UTC

True. Often people waking up from barge comas aren't even assessed by a doctor.

Re: [Private] needshumility May 18 2011, 12:44:41 UTC

Aren't they?

Are they usually taken to the infirmary, though? And then just... walk out?

[Private] doctor_j_crane May 18 2011, 12:46:33 UTC

They're taken to the infirmary when they collapse, provided someone finds them and is willing.

Yes. They can just leave if they want, as far as I understand it.

Re: [Private] needshumility May 18 2011, 12:50:16 UTC

And does nobody... make sure everything's... working?
