Textpertise Nov 15, 2010:
You too Do I detect the implication that you think my entry was intended to "steal away" your points, Barend? Because if that is so, please may I assure you that is not the case. I have been working for a consultant cardiologist for 7 years and 2 days to be precise, and in all that time I have not once encountered the term "one-vessel disease" used in the UK, although I do agree that you can find it on Google. I am sorry if you feel resentment, but I have proffered the answer which I think is most appropriate. There is really nothing personal about it. I'm sure that if I look back at times when I have given an answer and you have given a different one, there will be plenty of times that you have been given points for an answer when I felt my answer was better. So what? Win some, lose some. Please let's not have resentments about it!

Have a nice day. Have a nice day, Textpertise.
And Hughes, you as well, of course.
