Preview of coming attractions


Here is a story from Astley Bridge, Bolton, England, about a man who just had a one-centimeter-square piece of Ford Cortina windshield pop out of his face, 30 years after the accident in which he went through that windshield.

All this time, he thought the lump on his chin was just a benign cyst, but he cut the lump while shaving and it got infected, so he went to Royal Bolton Hospital, his local National Health Service hospital, where a doctor gave him some antibiotics and sent him on his way. Then he cut it again while shaving and realized there was something hard inside, so he squeezed it and the piece of glass came out.

At the time of the accident he had been taken to Royal Blackburn Hospital, a different National Health Service hospital, where "They patched me up and sent me on my way."

This is what you get when you put your health care in the hands of the government.
