sometimes I think I am insane, and other times I know it. THis morning was totally and completely a case in point. I enjoy staying educated, up to date, and informed on the public health issues that were part of my job for decades. One of those duties involved dealing with various WHO agencies, committees, and programs.
So, to make an even longer story short, I received an email notice from WHO about a Webinar this morning relating to Neglected Tropical Diseases. It is interesting (for me) to learn the current status of guinea worm, leprosy, and other diseases that I saw in Africa but are not exactly common in the developed countries.
The Webinar was not what I expected. It was a long, long announcement with bits and bobs from here and there as the opening sally for a Congress and World whatever day. Now, I like singing and people making speeches (not) as well as the next person. But seriously, I would not have gotten on line at 0500 (GMT-7) for a listen. Yes, I understand that 1400 in Geneva is about as good as one is going to get in terms of time zone fairness for the maximum number of people world wide.
But I am going to be a lot more cautious about agreeing to anything that early in the morning.
