    A bit of fact and a bit of fiction. Depending upon the type of mask you have greater resistance to inhalation/exhalation. There is also a certain amount of “dead space,” in which air...

  11. @Susie2310 I'll agree, and I'll disagree. Rather than reiterate my grounds, I'll use the following sources. As you can see, by these two sources, it is a privilege, and it is also a right, and it...
  12. @rzyzzy You seem to have a progressive BON. Anyone with half a brain can see that what I'm going through is a witch hunt. The problem is that nobody on the BON has bothered to fully read my answer...
  13. Thanks @rzyzzy I now realize that since the majority agree with you I should have done just that and now, that's what I'm doing. Still, I've checked and my target state will tell any employer (and...
  14. @hannabanana Yes, I intend to continue nursing. I have only a Capstone course to finish a BSN (with a cum 3.9+) and expect to move on to attain a Master's. I'm curious, why "pro counseling?"...
