For those not accustomed to that bit of weirdness from the British lexicon:

Surgery (politics):

A political surgery (in British politics) or clinic is a series of one-to-one meetings that a Member of Parliament (MP) may have with his or her constituents, at which a constituent may raise issues of local concern. The issues may relate to local issues (street crime, litter, a request for intervention by the MP on behalf of the constituent with local or national government) or it could deal with national policy matters.

I've been wondering what "MP" meant forever it seems. Just never was curious enough, or just outright forgot to look it up.
Thanks.

Now I've learned something new today besides that thing about the lube dispenser at the gay club. And NO, not VOE! It was in an article here earlier, ya dorks! Hehehe. d:^)
