A similar vein for the season
The surgeon knows about very little but does everything straight away
The physician knows about everything but does very little straight away
The pathologist knows about everything and does everything but does it too
late.
with best wishes

I always thought that the definition of a pathologist was:
Someone who gives the right answer when asked the wrong question
[even when given insufficient information to determine what the correct
