“Why Poor Kids Can’t Find a Dentist” (via Harry B)

I am going to have to get a babysitter and see Knocked Up. The reviews are fantastic. And I loved the magazine article about the director. We are huge fans of the 40 Year Old Virgin. “Do you know how I know you’re gay? Because you are holding each other ever so gently.”

Under the circumstances, one can see that it might be very difficult to get dentists to participate in programs that pay so little compared to market rate.
