...behind the same reference desk for a quarter century, the kind of commitment that is pretty hard to come by these days. I’m no fan of the Progressive Student Labor Movement, but I couldn’t suppress the percolating wellspring of ironic indignation within my chest when the president spoke of the rarity of such service. Security guards and custodians, young Turks who age into sparkling-eyed old men after a lifetime helping fancy Harvard kids, are an endangered species around here—not because it’s so hard to find such people...

But even though they will finish the job by hand today, there's no need for a giant incision. Instead, they will work between the ribs in a hole no wider than a tennis ball to reattach the artery.

These procedures are performed through three incisions, each about the diameter of a pen, instead of cracking open the chest. With a less invasive approach, they promise benefits in patient recovery and lower costs for post-op care. The da Vinci's ability to perform precise movements in tiny spaces - without trembling like a tired surgeon might - could allow better microsurgery, preventing debilitating nerve damage...
