Went to the drive-in past w/e. They telecast the stero sound through your FM dial. Sounds fantastic!

Here's some more paths down mem'ry lane:
Glass IV bottles
enamel/stainless steel bedpans/urinals
(and collecting them to take to be washed a night?)
Glass syringes and sending needles back to c/s
re-wrapped,"sterilized" resp equipment (seems ewwww now)
when gloves were only for 'dirty jobs', ie; "code Brown"
