Thanks to a last-minute rally by dead Chicagoans, no doubt victims of physician assisted suicide, who seem not only to be able to vote for mayor of that city but also to have a love of bioethics and a broadband connection faithful readers, we somehow won the 2005 Medical Weblog Award for “best health policy/ethics” blog. The self-effacing, self-proclaimed underdog among the nominees, an excellent blog called Hospital Impact almost routed us, as they note with a great big chart, but the help of a veritable army of Raelians faithful readers seems to have resulted in an eBay-style last minute win. So, now, the sparkling trophy will annoy you from the top of our page for a while.
