    DD> Then they're not really doctors. They're bureaucraps w/degree. The   
    DD> Hippocratic states "First Do No Harm". Apparently they to the

    SD> Unfortunately so.  I don't know how anyone would work at a place thake   
    SD> that as a medical doctor, to be honest.  The VA needs to be scrapped

   That's what happens when you put bureaucratsd in charge of a program    
   meant to show compassion and understanding. Bureaucrats are forever POed   
   that life does not fit into neat and orderly niches for them. And they   
   spend their working lives trying to make it so.   
      
    DD> You need to get hold of my Senator - Tammy Duckworth. She's a   
    DD> (disabled)  veteran and a strong advocate for veteran;s causes,   
      
    SD> I may; I have contacted my Senator and Congresswoman also.   
      
   Before she got into elected office she was the head of the Veteran's   
   Affairs department for my state. "Department of Veterans Affairs   
   llinois is the destination of choice for veterans and a national    
   leader in veteran advocacy and services. IDVA sets the standard for   
   connecting veterans and their families with all the benefits available

    DD> even me.   
      
    SD> I wonder where some of these people are now.   
       
   A lot of them are checking out nthe afterlife. Either wearing wings and    
   playing a harp or shovelling fuel onto the fires. I told my brother, when   
   he asked what I wanted done with my ashes - "Put theem in the trunk of your   
   car and use them fortraaction on slick roads. That way I'll still be of    
   some use .......

    Categories: Breads, Fruits, Dairy   
         Yield: 2 servings   
       
   MMMMM---------------------------SAUCE--------------------------------   
         2 c  Blueberries; rinsed   
       1/3 c  Sugar   
      
   MMMMM--------------------------PANCAKES-------------------------------   
     1 1/2 c  A-P flour   
       1/2 c  Whole-wheat flour   
         2 ts Baking powder   
       1/2 ts Baking soda   
       1/2 ts Fine salt   
         1 tb Unsalted butter; melted,   
              - more for cooking   
         1 lg Egg; beaten   
         2 c  Sour milk or buttermilk   
              Syrup or jam/jelly; to   
              - serve   
       
     Make the sauce: To a medium pot set over medium heat,   
     bring the blueberries, sugar, and 1/3 cup of water to a   
     boil. Turn the heat to low and cook, stirring   
     occasionally, until theblueberries break down and the   
     sugar dissolves, 4-5 minutes. Remove from the heat and   
     set aside.   
        
     Make the pancakes: In a large bowl, whisk together the   
     all-purpose flour, whole-wheat flour, baking powder,   
     baking soda, and salt. Whisk in the melted butter and   
     egg until just combined and no streaks of flour remain,   
     then whisk in the sour milk.   
        
     In a large non-stick skillet set over medium-low heat,   
     melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Once the foam has subsided,   
     working in batches, use a ?-cup measuring cup to scoop   
     the batter onto the pan (without crowding the surface).   
     Cook until tiny bubbles begin to form on the tops of the   
     pancakes and the bottoms are golden brown, 2-4 minutes.   
     Flip and cook the other side until golden brown, 2-4   
     minutes more. Transfer the pancakes to a platter and   
     tent with foil to keep warm. Add more butter to the   
     skillet and repeat with the remaining batter. Serve   
     immediately with the blueberry sauce and maple syrup.
