[quote=Anonymous]DH is a doctor from Europe who did a stint in the ambulance for a couple of years in a very rough neighborhood. Machete wounds, suicides, drownings, etc. The few times his toddler DD fell down the stairs (not all the way, though), and I panicked about concussions, he thew out casually: "Eh, what's a few neurons?". He does tend to be extremely calm under pressure and has low empathy in general. High-functioning autism and high intelligence runs in his family. I think there is a VERY important connection there. People in some professions need to think fast in urgent situations, which precludes an emotional response. So the ones best fitted to ICUs etc are probably people who tend to be rational and objective, ie, the least emotional/touchy-feely/sympathetic ones. [/quote]
