The best part is that they are all out patients so there is no one to round on over the week end.

sorry, but I am afraid that neither opcabbers or oncabbers are going to feel 
like F16 pilots   for long if they do now, anyway F16 is outdated any way JSF 
is in or maybe eurofighter or even the Swedes are trying with their new SAAB.
Point is really that an operation invented 50 years ago ( or is it 100 if you 
count Carrell, is probably due for radical overhaul or   brake through 
technology. And since this breakthrough may not have been the stents I think we as 
cardiac surgeons are in a good position to do something new, whether it is with 
robots, connectors or anything else. Hard to say but I must say that I am 
sorry I am not a better endoscopist yet, when I see my pertner over here in Oslo 
take out half the liver, the whole pancreas, kidneys for family donated 
transplantation, adrenal glands, redo Nissen fundoplication, obesity operations etc.
When I see him work I just feel I missed something. 
Incidentally this guy does not use the pump either.

Anyone who wants to see a funny somehow related video can go to You tube and 
search on "helpdesk". Pretty funny.
