John Olsen knows virtually nothing about almost everything.

He has a photo blog.

He likes to perform on stage, preferably before a voluntary audience.

In 1997,he became an activist about health care issues after he began overseeing his parents health care needs.

One thing that he knows is that having health insurance does not mean that the beneficiary will receive the appropriate health care.

He also knows that many politicians, members of the media, and not for profit self-described health care advocacy groups are ignoring this problem.

He still believes that fighting for justice is a worthy cause, even if it is a pain in the ass. Coincidentally, he has been considered to be a pain in the asses of some of the aforementioned politicians, members of the media, and not for profit self-described health care advocacy groups.

My goal is to illustrate that while I think that I am going through the proper channels in order to render a response, my correspondence and phone calls rarely do. I might be naive [stupid] to think that a relative nobody like myself should expect responses from anybody, but so what. I am going to write about it anyway.
