stimulating conversation&#8230;  beach bars&#8230;.  sun&#8230;<br />
smells of shrimp grilling, <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">suntan oils</span> sunscreen lotions, and sea salt&#8230;<br />
sounds of ice hitting glasses, waves splashing in, and guy-banter all around&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Now, <a href="http://blog.coturnix.org/2010/08/31/grand-rounds-vol-6-no-49-a-conference-in-a-tropical-island-resort/" target="_blank"><em><strong>THIS</strong></em></a> is a conference!!</p>
<p>Dang, I&#8217;m going to Grand Rounds <em> </em>more often!!  And, I&#8217;m dragging the rest of you *with* me!  <a href="http://blog.coturnix.org/" target="_blank">Blogging Around the Clock</a> is a science blog and the dreamy host of this tropical <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">conference</span> installment of <em><a href="http://blog.coturnix.org/2010/08/31/grand-rounds-vol-6-no-49-a-conference-in-a-tropical-island-resort/" target="_blank">Grand Rounds</a> &#8211; </em><em>where Medicine &amp; Science meets the web! </em></p>
<p>In every institution with which I have been affiliated, Nurses are always invited to &#8216;Grand Rounds&#8217;, &#8230;and this one is no different.  The viewpoints of Nurses are valid and (as we know) <em>necessary</em> to the complete care and understanding of a patient or situation.</p>
<p>Even though Nurses&#8217; opinions are not initially or usually solicited demonstrably &lt;a-hem&gt;(<a href="http://themusern.com/?p=1125" target="_blank"><em>&#8220;She&#8217;s &#8230;uhhhh&#8230;.smart!?? WTH??&#8221;</em></a>), they are a pleasant change of pace and most often welcomed after-the-fact by many <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">evolved</span> <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">progressive</span> <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">human</span> ready-for-change physicians, students and administrators.</p>
<p>Check it out sometime &#8211; <a href="http://blog.coturnix.org/2010/08/31/grand-rounds-vol-6-no-49-a-conference-in-a-tropical-island-resort/" target="_blank">here</a> on the web <em>and</em> in your organization!</p>
<p>&#8230;you&#8217;ll be glad you did.</p>
