   Not to harp on Dr Strange, (because I’m really not a fan of his), but if you have got strange diseases in a place called San Diablo, and you are calling Dr Blake instead of Dr Strange, you are just doing it wrong.

   Is there any medical use in that Ace bandage the doc is wrapping around Tommy’s forearm? Can you sprain your arm like that?

   If the kid has an epicondylitis (Tennis elbow, Golfer’s elbow, etc.), then wrapping the Ace from the forearm over the elbow to the lower part of the upper arm would help reduce swelling.

   Well, that all seems perfectly normal–germ warfare?!

   Old Don seems to be shading over the line into uber-doctor, there, at times. Not only germ warfare (and who knew how to genetically engineer a new virus back then?), but an x-ray scanner with a 10-mile range? Yeesh.

   You left out the time he invented a lifelike humanoid robot with superpowers, or whatever the hell.

   ::Hangs up lab coat:: That’s it. If I have to do all that as a doctor, then forget it! And here I was thinking I could specialize and listen to hearts all day, but now I have to get into germ warfare too! Yikes!
