This is Kent "The Ironman" Stevens. He is my friend. I call him "The Ironman" because he is always in shape, and he can survive for days with no sleep. As an emergency room surgeon his schedule has been crazy ever since I have known him, but he always has a flat stomach and can go hike the Grand Canyon or climb Denali with almost no preparation. If he wasn't my friend I would probably be insanely jealous of him and dislike him immensely just on general principles. Kent was an electrical engineer but decided he wanted to be a doctor. He is now an Associate Professor of Surgery at Johns Hopkins University. Nothing on this blog is new to him. Kent has traveled to places like Egypt and Bangladesh to help train other doctors. He has also traveled to many interesting places on his own, or with his wife. Places I know he has traveled are Nepal, Peru, Ecuador, Alaska, Hawaii, Egypt, and Bangladesh. He has been to Everest base camp a couple of times, has climbed in Ecuador, and recently climbed Mt. McKinley (20,320 ft I think). Somehow on top of all of this he manages to be a husband to his wife Janet and a father to their three kids.

That is why we call him the ironman...
Thanks for the kind words--though it sounds like the ironman label should be reassigned to the author of this blog.
