Abstract
I glanced around the lobby of the US Capitol offices, admiring the oil paintings, gold plaques, and antique furniture that decorated the room. The five other Rhode Island attendings and trainees were perched on couches, their tapping feet echoing the excitement and nerves that were currently churning through my stomach. Although my feet ached after walking for 2 miles through the blazing DC heat, I'd decided to stand and give the other delegates a break before we spoke with Senator Jack Reed.
