Bit of Whimsy Retrospection offers many pleasures and allows the mind free rein to muse and wander. The past year has been a full one and recalled events file by in fanciful procession. We see the battle flags of Peterboro, Stanislaus, Zermatt, Kwashiorkor and HIP. Snappy contingents from the Audubon Ballroom, and from the murky heights of Amphitheatre A pass by on their way to the great reviewing stand in Chi-Square where Weber , Snow, Rem and Rad stand nodding and smiling on steps 1 - 5. The crowd roars its appreciation, systematically clustered while the cautious ones stand on the fringes eager for any benefit that may come their way. Shredded calorie counters from the Food Exchange flutter down upon the twin monuments to Probability and Significance. The sunlight glistens on the helmets of fat soluble units and flashes on a hundred Blue Shields. Bands blare martial tunes that extol the virtues of Recent Clinical Advances and Medical Audit. A precision drill team ofhospital administrators carry signs advocating the 3rd party while a colorful British unit marches by, dusting the crowd with egg powder left over from World War ll lend-lease stocks. Health educators roam through the massed spectators signing up people for mass screenings of every sort. High above, squadrons of Anopheles jet fighters spill vapor trails across the sky that twist and wind and finally spell out the long words DIPHYLLOBOTHRIUM LATUM.
