Chuck: New posts ARE shown (at least we have that much!) If the little envelope in the left column is closed, there are new posts in that thread. If the envelope is open, there aren't. Do a...
I had robotic last June. The surgery itself was a breeze. The big thing was getting the catheter out, which happened 8 days later. I mowed my lawn 11 days post-surgery, and I don't have a rider. Then...
