Takes me back. In my misspent youth, as McIndoe Research Fellow at East
Grinstead, I used to come across Hackett a fair bit because we were both
interested in infrared pics of burns for diagnosis of depth. Nice man.
He told me he was once brought back by air ambulance after an MI abroad. He
was feeling a bit poorly and the medic escorting him asked the pilot where
he could plug in his portable defib. The pilot asked casually what the defib
did. When the doc told him that it would zap wor Hackett with 300 joules the
pilot said "Not on my aircraft, matey, it'll knock out all my instruments"
Hackett said it concentrated his mind wonderfully.
