Years of Coumadin Use

[Karlynn]

Seeing RCB's poll again on Coumadin use - expectation vs reality, made me wonder just how many years we have collectively here of Coumadin use. So I thought it would be interesting to try and quantify it. Please vote the closest choice, but then post your actual years and we'll keep a running tally.
