Quality does pay for itself. But not everything that is expensive is quality (or guarantees fair wages for workers,...). Sadly it is hard to find quality nowadays.

Did you try going over the north pole as it were. If you check flight paths from EU to USA for example they look like they make a big detour north, but it is shorter because the earth is round.

Feel you. We have 24 h shifts a few times /month. Sometimes we manage to sleep. If not, by the time I get home it is usually 28-ish hours awake...

If parking costs and traffic jams in city centres become too much, and people realise there are good alternatives, they do change. It takes time, it takes investment, it takes long term vision, it is not a "quick fix".

Changing people's habits is hard (in any field). It requires to things: a good alternative and an incentive. If there is no acceptable alternative (too unsafe, too irregular, unpredictable,...) nobody will change. It needs to be in place first.

The title and summary of the article you quote seems to refer to the price, not the quality. Good public transport is reliable, regular, well connected, connects where people come from (residential areas) to where they want to go (school, work, city centres). It does not have to be free.

But worse public transport increases car use.
Clearly if you have a car and your default mode of transport is a car, you will use a car.
If you always use public transport, but service gets worse, there comes a point it becomes too impractical and you buy a car.

Had a colleague use this once while surgeon was leaning against table during surgery. Suddenly surgeon jumped backwards. Apparently the muscle relaxant wore off and the surgeon believed patient squeezed his privates...
So, you could test sensitivity of surgical bollocks?

Arterial? Usually just feeling. Only US if unsuccessful or difficult palpation (or expected difficult access) to start with. Usually OOP (same for periph veins)
Central lines I learned in plane (after I learned landmark technique in first years of training - no US available to us then.
