What was this meeting, a center for ANTS?! I'm of normal height (obviously, see photo).

The Transition to Practice Special Interest Group (SIG) recently held a meeting lead by co-chairs Brie Carter and Sarah Curtis.

I've been trying to get you all to throw out those supplements for years. I'm sure the grifters who sell them will say the salmonella is all natural just like the e coli with the raw milk.

I have questions, like "Where do I get my height from in this scenario?" I'm not changing my last name. If you're confused what I'm talking about, look at the photo again.
