My unqualified but local opinion is that this is definitely a good thing. In our neck of the woods, finding ANY doctor open on a weekend is absolutely impossible, and it's about the same on Wednesday afternoons because they all go golfing. As for going to the ER, there's no telling who you'd run into and the reason for your visit would be all over half the state by the next day. This is particularly true for someone like me who is very well acquainted with the entire fire department and EMS crew. However, we do have a Walgreen’s, and their pharmacy is open until 10 PM. We found out when a friend had a rather unpleasant experience with a broken condom (yep... It was a Trojan) that you do have to go through the whole "60 questions" song and dance with the pharmacist, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. I guess my opinion is that in this particular rural area OTC Plan B is a great idea. I don't think you should be able to get it without talking to a pharmacist, though because of the potential risks.
