师把案子转到regular civil docket,我没搞懂为什么律师要转,是不是因为regular
civil docket原告输了,要付被告的律师费啊?
我简单的说下原委
小孩摔倒,手臂疼,去急诊室,打石膏,回家
过了几个星期去私人诊所(医生还是属于医院),一个男的医生说好了,把石膏去掉,
把石膏去掉后,小孩看上去恢复了
过了一星期,按预约再看医生,男医生不见了,是一个女医生,女医生给了个理由可能
是再次摔倒骨折的几率大,又给装上石膏,
过了一两个星期,按预约再看医生,还是女医生,拆了,完了也就几分钟。
收到账单,把我吓一跳,那个女医生最后一次的账单是这样
office visit 10mins,150美元
一个特殊的治疗,1160美元,
这个特殊的治疗1160美元把我激怒了,和妻子确认根本就没有的事,因为我们是HIGH

尊敬的诺贝尔评奖委员会:
我们曾在今年的三月初发给你们一封信,信中表达了我们不同意刘晓波为2010年诺贝尔

视台讲话为中共在天安门广场屠杀学生掩饰罪行。又因为,他在去年被非法拘留近一年

标志着人权已经成为中国法治的根本原则之一。”他二十年来不顾事实地公开赞扬一贯
践踏人权的中共的行为对中国民主运动起到误导作用和恶劣影响。他的这些表现都使他

出许多问题,要本人答复。这里就应大家要求做些回复。时间精力限制,不可能一下子
都做好回复,就请允许本人从留言来信议论最多的题目开始,并尽量按照留言来信要求
做回复。这是第三篇。[前言完]。
转给本人的第三个问题,是篇文章《美国在全面反思转基因技术吗?》,署名“不是钟

一、本人有篇文章说,经过反思,美国转基因技术发展已经转换方向,譬如从DNA-水平
转向RNA-水平,转向尊重天然和服从自然的框架下发展。新华社摘录发表为“美国全面
反思转基因技术”说法。
就此,来自方舟子网页的文章指控说“美国不会全面反思”;还说,说美国“开始转向
和全面反思”是“谣言”云云。--- 本人不得不再说,方舟子一无业人员,总好把自己
装扮成比美国政府更知道美国政府,整个是自欺欺人。
