Greening the doctor

Ok, so I'm officially an ecoweenie. I went for my pap test today and was very impressed by my doctor.
Not by her bedside manner. Or her knowledge of medicine. Nope, it was because I thought she was being very green. I didn't ask her if it was on purpose, but you know that horrible retractor thing they use? Well it was a good old fashioned metal one. Cold, yes, but not wasteful like those disposable plastic ones.
And the little paper sheet she gave me to cover myself? She had torn it in half, saving paper. (Maybe she was just being cheap but who really cares what the motivation is). I did feel a little bad because I really should have just brought my own sheet, but hey, my doctor's green! I think that's kind of cool. I know, I'm a weenie, but I'm ok with it.
