Listening this morning to the Alaska Medical Board, which is holding its hearing on a pretty controversial set of regulations dealing with physician assistants.

Front of the Newsminer this morning is an article interviewing me about the staffing crisis at the Fairbanks Pioneer Home.

They also talked with our @ASEALocal52

That winter delight of turning off the main state roads to the smaller borough-maintained roads that have vastly better snow removal. (And bonus are actually nicer as snow roads than rainy-season-gravel-pothole-messes.)
