Wonder what test they used

stephens@erim.org (Richard L. Stephenson)
(smirk, true)

Supposely true, heard on NPR's Morning Edition on Jan. 11, 1993:

In a series on rising health care costs, a man was being interviewed about
his visit to a hospital emergency room.  A chicken bone had become lodged
in his throat or windpipe.

The bone was removed in a visit lasting about 2 hours.

The bill was over $3,000.

But, the best part was,

  "They sent the chicken bone to a lab.  It came back 'chicken bone'."

(From the "Rest" of RHF)
