Look at the two Samuelson sisters and the two Ogwumike sisters. Earned every step they got. Stanford campus is not an elitist retreat. Tiger Woods went there. Very productive research comes from there. I was lucky enough to have an A-fib that Palo Alto Medical Foundaton heart surgeons had specialized in, getting their ablation procedure down from 9 hours to max 2 hours. They fixed mine first pass. 90 days later, I had my hip replaced from hiking up 1,800' every day, then 90 days later fixing one of two shoulders with limited movement since the 60's growing up in CT. They replaced the first one, then 90 days later, the second one. I had zero swelling or pain after each surgery. Zero muscle damage. Note: I did have them install a tiny LED Christmas light in each joint that I could turn on at the right moment, usually to impress whomever I was with in a dark room... Hmmm... But I did spend a lot of time up there and the kids, every one, reminded me of our own UCONN women. So root for Stanford, cause they're a good bunch of kids. Would love for a Samuelson vs Samuelson game so the two little girls who never let up on Lou, could battle it out, one last time! That would be fun! [/QUOTE]
