@Banfield - FYI your website and app are less than helpful. 15 minutes of waiting for page to load only to be told no online appointments for my sick animal for the next 60 days? For this I pay for the wellness plan? For all y'all charge you oughta be able to do more than that

@FissellIv is giving a #wfc13 keynote address on his work with #artificalkidneys. #Kidneyfailure is a major health problem. Huge gap between need and transplant availability.

[13th World Filtration Congress @wfcongress_13]

@FissellIv at #wfc13 - kidneys are active filtration membranes and the solutions for an artifical kidney exist.

@ATTHelp And by the way, this is your *third* chance - you've been out at the address twice before but still.... blowin in the wind

[William H. Fissell IV @FissellIv]

@ATTHelp explain this high-tech AT&T hookup... twisted pair just flapping in the wind... And this is *after* two service calls

[William H. Fissell IV @FissellIv]

@ATTHelp So far what youve done is call me at my workplace and use the excuse of confirming the appointment to try to sell me a home security system. Why are you so intent on a DM?

[William H. Fissell IV @FissellIv]

@ATTHelp Embarrassed?

[William H. Fissell IV @FissellIv]

@ATTHelp Typical AT&T. Link takes me to web page that tells me to either chat with a chat bot that offers to sell me things or *yet again* call a number and wait wait wait wait on hold. Like I did the last two times I reported it. #Unimpressed

[William H. Fissell IV @FissellIv]

@Crystal4kidneys @Crystal4kidneys you are the bomb.

[William H. Fissell IV @FissellIv]

@NashSevereWx @NWSNashville Since we're flying out at dawn Saturday, I really appreciate these granular updates! Keep 'em coming!

I bought this book 12 yrs ago and have been waiting for a "good" time to start reading it. The time has come. It begins with the German/Soviet invasion of Poland in September 1939, using the same pretenses we are hearing today. I hope the similarity ends there.
