God will not interfer on a global level because then what would be the point of us all having free will. Or, there is karma and we're all screwed.

Dr. Braner is indeed hilarious. I spent a few days in his peds ICU during my medic school clinicals, and got to see him conduct rounds. As the entire cloud of residents, attendings, med students, etc, followed behind, Dr. Braner slid from doorway to doorway on a rolling office chair. After the discussion of each patient was finished, he'd push off for the next room. The best part was when he literally launched himself across the ICU.

... oh, yeah, and he seems like a sharp doc, too.

Very Cool!
