TMT, TLT!

This stands for "Too Many Things, Too Little Time", which mean that I have a lot of things that I want to talk about, but little time. So, I will just mention them shortly:

--- A couple of days ago, there was a meeting to which I was invited by a close friend. The event was held in one of the cafe's in Al Korba, Cairo, Egypt. A group of people were gathering to discuss their plans for the USMLE (United States Medical Licensing Examination). They were really motivated, and I was happy to be able to see such a group of bright, brilliant and enthusiastic minds. I knew that the new generations represent the main hope to our country, and that group was one of the proofs.

--- I went to open an bank account for me (something that will be needed for those traveling to the States). It was in a branch of an international bank. The service was really good, and the staff members were accurate. This helped to answer one of my concerns. If we were going to start a neuroinformatics lab here in Egypt, will the people have the capacity to stick to a system, and respect different rules and regulations? The answer is what I saw today, and what I had seen before several times as I was dealing with some places that are considered international with Egyptian workers.

--- I was considering putting some of my diaries while I was in USA so as that group of USMLE takers would feel how is it to be in the States, from the point of view of someone who first visited it when he was 28 years old.
