Opinions many, all very much mine!
Thio, sux, cricoid etc. aren't magic. They were thought up by clever people, and new clever people get to think up the next version, and make it better. This is how things move on towards "optimal".

When we are so bound to the past we can't change, we perish, innit?

I dunno. I think if it uses rapid onset drugs, that either WILL wear off, or CAN BE reversed, plus cricoid, plus apnoea between induction and intubation, it is an RSI.

Agreed though, none of the components really stand up to scrutiny anymore.

It rained every day for a month after I started my degree here. I still love it though. You never forget your first city, do you?

Excellent use of the term wrongun. I am quite fond of that one myself.
