A Dental Office... By the Train Tracks!

[Mr Light]

I live in an apartment building that's across the street from train tracks. Around three times a day a train comes by. How do I know? It blares its horn five times for the intersection (which I can clearly hear but isn't loud) and the entire building gently shakes.

Today I saw on the building row that is literally five feet away from the tracks... they're putting in a dental office! Do you have any idea how violently that building must shake when the train goes by? How how deafening the train's horn is going to be since the intersection is twenty feet from the dental office???

How can the dentist do a surgery when a train could come by at any second? A procedure involving cutting people open with scapels, using sharp picks, and needles?

Is it just me or is this a hilarious terrible idea?

I bet Mr (or Mrs) Dentist purchased the property unseen based on price ("Oh hey I know where you can build an office for real cheap!") and once they move in they'll be all ZOMG.

Good soundproofing.

Let's just hope the building doesn't shake when he's drilling!

The horn and rumbling noise will drown out the screams so it all works out in the end.

Obviously the placement of the dental surgery near the rail tracks is done using a highly Buddhist methodology.... an attempt to transcend dental medication.

When it comes to dentistry and new dental methods, there is only one question worth asking:

"Is it safe?"

Fixed your typo.

Please warn this person. Warn him to the fullest extent of the law.

And then some.

So you want him punished, then?

Sic the dawgs on him. The really yappy poodles.

I lived 2 blocks from train tracks once and it took some getting used to. I don't think I'd go to a dental office right next to tracks.

Too much precision work required.

That's how they save on their overheads. No need for electricity to power the drills.
