I'm in agreement over the dead animal photo. Complete and total agreement. I was merely asking (I thought politely) why she didn't add a "topic" photo into her post as well, to rather help turn us away from the "train wreck".

rested gal, please forgive my poor communication and tact there.

Spoiler - There is probably no point in reading further.

But if you want to, here goes................

The cap on my right front tooth came off recently, and I could only find half of it.

The local dentist in private practice quoted $1,500 to $2000 to fix it.

Which I cannot afford.

I went to my usual community health dentist, and she did a beautiful job of building up the remains of my tooth, and also building up the half a cap I still had. And yes, she then joined the two, and it looks and works great.

The cost - $23-00.

I am so grateful we have a public health system, whilst not perfect, is probably as good as any in the world. See "cross-Country Comparisons" at -

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_care_system

which I found fascinating, and, in parts, somewhat inexplicable.

This has been another item of fairly pointless information from

Mars

But I was too excited about the result to not share it with you.

cheers

Thanks for the clarification, Roman.
