Some of McCoy's "I'm a doctor, not a ..."

"Mirror, Mirror": Scotty needs some help to get the conditions
right for return to Federation universe from Empire universe:
	McCoy: "I'm a doctor, not an engineer."
	Scott: "NOW you're an engineer."

"Horta" (veracity of title not guaranteed) McCoy examines silicon-
based life that Kirk has asked him to heal:
	McCoy: "I'm a doctor, not a bricklayer! You realize that
	thing is made of out stone?"
	Kirk: "You're a healer; there's a patient."

"The Deadly Years" Spock asks McCoy to make him less sensitive to
sub-120 degree temperatures:
	McCoy: "I'm not a magician, Spock, just an old country
	doctor."
	Spock: "Yes, as I always suspected."

"This Side of Paradise" (Paradise Syndrome?) Elias Sandoval
wonders what work to assign to McCoy:
	McCoy: "I'm a doctor."
	Elias: "We have no need of doctors..."
	McCoy: "Then how about making me a mechanic, so I can fix
	little tin gods like you."

Quick question from the "Deadly Years": was the name of the
pencil-pushing commodore "Stecker"? Sounds like too much of a
cross between Stowe (Court-Martial) and Decker (Doomsday Machine)
Besides Mendez (Menagerie), were there any other commodores in the
series?
