"What should I call you? Doctor, Professor, what?" When I am before experts and specialists I always make sure that a proper atmosphere of respect prevails. It does no good to familiarize an interview; it works both ways. A person that is respectfully addressed usually responds in kind. With exceptions of course. "It really makes no difference to me. If you wish you can call me by my first name which is Lem" He was a rugged and handsome Marlboro ad type of doctor, I thought. While he had a reputation as one of the best in his profession, I could not help wondering if some of the good press was not in part contributed by his masculine looks and that engaging smile of his. It was easy to understand why housewives would readily agree to his work methods and his recommendations. When it comes to beauty, women can easily be influenced by beauty. "All righ, Lem. Tell me, how did you get into this specialized field of surgery?" "Well, I always admired beautiful things. When I was a small boy, my father bought me a set of small tools and since then I have been absolutely seduced by the way tools can beautify things and bring changes that people enjoy.." "Yes, I would agree. Your surgery work is really outstanding. Also, the fact that you have won the City's Best Citizen Cup confirms your peculiar expertise. You are truly a mechanic of beauty!" "It has not been easy. For some years, people in this city did nothing to apply and benefit from modern surgery techniques. In all those years, people did not have many opportunities to recur to specialized outfits. But, it is a smart town. When the time came, it was quick to recognize and apply modern technology." "What is the major drawback in your work, Lem?" I asked, while he carefully removed his gloves and his cap and dried his forehead with a Korean imitation Italian silk bandanna. "Usually, husbands and children" "Why is that?" "Husbands because they have to pay the bill and children because they often prefer the way things were before I operated" "How do you cope with those problems?" "Have you ever seen a tree surgeon that is not a good diplomat?" Chemical engineer by training, international executive by merit and writer by addiction. Former syndicated columnist of Technology columns, has written for television and movies. His humorous articles contain fine satire and have been published in 4 languages.
