I am building a database of emergency bills and negotiable prices to help with patient advocacy and price transparency. It's been instrumental in helping patients negotiate with the hospital to reduce/refund medical bills in the SF Bay Area.
Would love to talk more about your dataset and insights.

As an Iranian my entire family was affected by the 1979 Iranian Revolution. In fact like you my uncle and aunts were out in the street and protested against the Shah.
Much like what you've mentioned about the revolution in Egypt at first the Iranian Revolution was by a broad spectrum of people, and Khomeini and the Islamists only became important and came into power after the Shah left. However like the MB today Khomeini took all the credit, twisting history (such as naming it the Islamic Revolution) and getting absolute control of the country through fear and tyrany. After the revolution eventually there was a mass exodus of people and today to the surprise of most foreigners there is now a huge divide between the people of Iran and the Iranian diaspora, even though only though less than 35 years has passed, and there are even cultural differences between the two groups...
It feels like history is repeating itself in Egypt, it's quite scary actually.
How do you feel about this? Your opinions about all this in relation to the recent events in Egypt would be interesting...

While traveling I met up with some Korean travelers and we talked about Costco for quite a while.

Hello,
I specialize in patient advocacy and negotiating on behalf of patients to reduce/refund medical bills in the SF Bay Area. I've much experience negotiating with SFGH and would love to help out if possible.
Shoot me a PM, think I can be of service.
