so a jury of doctors can determine
whether the doctor in question was negligent or not.  what do you guys
think?	i thought it sounded pretty interesting.

I think that would be a great idea, but of course doctors may be biased 
towards their mates as well. If Dr A votes against Dr B then next time Dr B may

vote against Dr A just because.  As an ER nurse, I see a lot of interesting 
facets in medical litigation and sometimes i see things that are BLATENTLY
wrong 
and sometimes even end up in a patient dying and I wish I could say to the 
patient's family "you need to look into that" but I also see the other side
where 
little things -- like an IV infiltration on a baby -- which may not be a big 
deal and lawyers become involved.

I do think suing big corporations is a grand idea though! get rid of the 
corporations! :)
