I'm Dr. Joshua Schwimmer, a nephrologist and internal medicine physician in New York City. • Kidney Notes was the first active nephrology blog. (Trivia: Kidney Notes is so old that the National Library of Medicine still uses it as an example of how to formally cite blogs.) • Professionally, you can find me at Kidney.nyc. • Kidney Notes is for educational purposes only, not medical advice.

So, I am now half complete with Song of Susannah, the sixth book of the Dark Tower series. I have attempted to read all of them using Ereader on a Treo 650. I'm sold on reading books this way.
