You are Exhibit A for the reason the rest of the country disdains northeasterners. Perhaps if you got out and traveled a little more, your lack of education and humility could be remedied.
I've done a fair amount of traveling in my day.Feel free to check my profile page if you're curious as to where I've traveled.
...your lack of education....
Particularly in light of the fact that you haven't the foggiest idea of my educational credentials (or my life experiences) you've gotta admit that that's a cheap shot.
....and humility could be remedied.
How does "humility" enter into this....except,perhaps,where DeBakey is described as "the greatest surgeon ever"? That sounds like the statement of a hospital administrator who trying to enhance the margins of the hospital that he/she runs (Methodist?) or a surgeon (or group of surgeons)who's trying to ride DeBakey's coattails.
"Greatest surgeon ever"? If you want to discuss humility focus first on *that* statement.
