Most J, R, & S conversations are based on real conversations -- though generally somewhat fictionalized for effect, timing, etc.

As for joint appointments, it is the best way to make sure we both get to the dentist and opthamologist regularly. One of us is bound to remember.

So, having gone to military schools most of my childhood, I had reasonably thorough and regular testing of things like vision, color vision, spinal curvature, etc. It didn't occur to me that some (or even am aweful lot) of you would not be familiar with this standard color vision test. For a neat web page about it you can check out WebExhibits.org. That link actually takes you to the middle of a long and very interesting article.

Cheers.
