Hiya John, Yeah, Duke is practically in my backyard, so I must be absorbing wisdom by osmosis! Great school, to be sure! And the Duke surgeons did my WLS, as well! Of course, I went to UNC Chapel Hill for both undergrad and law school, but my daughter is looking at Duke as one of her options for undergrad (she's a junior in high school now). I'd love to buy you a cup of coffee next time you're in town! May is gorgeous in NC (and I'm sure in lots of places!). With kindest regards, Donna E. www.teklawgirl.biz
