How much do neurosurgeons get a year?
A neurosurgeon studies for an absolute minimum of 14 years before being legally qualified to poke inside someone's head. But even after four years pre-med, four years MD and six years of residency, many neurosurgical candidates cram in a two-year master's degree and follow their residency with a one- to two-year subspecialty fellowship, if not significant Ph.D. research in neuroscience. And if you think that's a long haul as an impoverished student, try doing it while all your med school buddies are living large on GP salaries. On the flip side, the patient having his or her head examined probably feels better knowing that the guy wielding the knife put in 20 years for the privilege. But 20 years...isn't that a bit much?

What body systems regulate pH?
As far as I know, pH is regulated by the lungs and kidneys. In your blood, pH is represented by C02 + H20 -> H2CO3 -> HCO3- + H+. So, when you exhale rapidly you remove CO2 from your blood. This forces the reaction to favor the reactants and pH increases (Le chatelier's Principle).
As for the kidneys, if the blood pH is too high, then the kidneys will excrete HC03-. If it is too low, it will excrete H+.
Can anyone else think of how pH is regulated?

A doctor has completed 4 years of college and 4 years of medical school and 1-3 years of internship (sometimes combined with residency) Then, she may have 3-6 more years of residency in her specialty.
