Jesus, ita. What an asshole.
I don't know. He did/does have a pretty hot temper. But, I can't see him attacking someone.
Isn't assault just threatening? Like, "I'm going to strangle you"?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Philip K. Dick radio tribute tonight
Surrealist science fiction author Philip K. Dick's birthday is December 16. In celebration. Total Dick-Head blogger Dave Gill will be doing a two-hour radio tribute tonight, from 10pm-midnight PT, on Pirate Cat Radio. Tune in to 87.9 FM in the San Francisco Bay Area or listen online. Dave says:
The show's called Psionic Dehiscence and I'll be playing some interviews with PKD - old ones - not from beyond the grave, some John Dowland, hopefully the VALIS opera (if you have a copy of this please email me), some Sonic Youth, Flaming Lips, and other strange rock 'n rollers influenced by PKD. I even hope to have some interviews with some of PKD's friends and family (no names just yet).

Dr. Baraff is an asshole. I hope he develops a nasty, painful and chronic condition himself. Of course, he'd probably just write his own scripts and not have any problem getting treatment. Fucker.
I doubt he has any meds readily available that would lessen the pain from platypus venom. Billytea?

Ann, that's a ferret.
Generally, PACER can get you copies of pleadings filed with the court.
Assault/assault and battery can cover a lot of ground. It could be as simple as a run-in with a neighbor or as big as, well, use your imagination.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Thanks, guys. You're saving me from self-pity.
Nice link, Kat. He's duly dinged.
I can't believe this doctor has just made my ER visits a crapshoot. He won't always be there, but I'll have no idea of knowing when. And although I didn't lose it on him today, if he'd gotten to me before I'd gotten any meds at all, I might just have. And he doesn't need to see that.

Or a box jellyfish. Either would be good. The platypus would probably survive the trip better (and probably be in ill temper when it arrived).

Can you call before you go? It may seem like too much to deal with at the time, but better than getting all the way over there only to find that asshole in charge.
