What does the health reform law say about pre-existing conditions and when does that kick in?
Starting in 2014, insurance companies will no longer be able to deny coverage with people with preexisting conditions.
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Well, I answered my own question. According to [link] the pre-existing condition coverage does not start till 2014.

Fridays are no good for me. I have a therapy session in the middle of the day.

Doesn't BK count as a therapy session?

I really shouldn't be looking at the J. Peterman catalog, because now I want this coat and either of these dresses.
