Crazy Americans!

Tonight I watched a NOVA TV program. It covered a new type of surgery, Fish Surgery. It said that it is able to treat a skin cancer fish via operation. Inside that clinic, you can do laser surgery, CAT scan, and MRI scan for a fish. I was shocked while I was watching that program! Who the hell would spend money on operating for a fish!?

In the show, it showed examples of the Americans bringing their fishes to that clinic. Fishes such as the expensive Koi to the cheap Gold Fish. Only in America! People in that country is way too rich without ways to spend their money! Or should I say, they are way too caring and warmth?

The show ended with a hypothesis that persuaded me a little bit. It said that in the 30's people thought you were insane to bring in a sicked dog to a doctor (vet is what we called now). People would just shot it down. In the 70's no one will care for any sicked birds, but there are lots of medications for bird sicknesses now. So . . . it might be natural for our grandson taking in a sicked snail to a vet years later.

No matter what, these things only happen in America.
