I can't tell you how many times patients say, "I didn't know that chiropractic could improve my strength," or whatever the case may be. Something is always of interest. People relay that. I think that's a good way... I'm glad that you said "little snippet" because my take on it, and what we teach the doctors even to do when it comes to the stroke research that we offer the information up to them, whether it be the Cassidy Study or Kozlov talking about that there's no additional onset of these vertebral artery dissections. Following a visit to a chiropractic versus the medical doctor or the casual relationship between chiropractic adjustment and cervical artery dissection, which hasn't been established, which was Church and a couple of other people ... There's so much of this research that we educate them on, and we don't want them to go and just blurt it out because it sounds defensive. You don't go to the medical doctor and hear all of the research. What you do see, and this is something almost defensive to me ... When I wake up in the morning and I'm getting dressed, I always have on the local news and they always have what they call their health segment which never has anything about health, and it certainly therefore never has anything about chiropractic. When they're offering up, they're just mentioning, "There may be help or hope for people with X, Y, Z," and they give a little blurp, "More research to come." I think that that's a really good way of doing things because that's patient in a chiropractic office are experiencing everywhere around them is that people are sharing information. We're in an information world. Getting that out to them I think is a really good thing. The waiting room; I'm so glad that you said that. Maybe I'm beating you to the punch, but in certain email or email newsletters, just mentioning a little bit about the research. Or your own social media on Facebook or whatever. One of the things that I can think of that I think would be awesome for the doctors after listening to you is create their own podcast based on the research that they can get right from participating with someone like you. I think that that would be great in addition to adding it into your lay lectures or inviting people in for a specific topic and include it. That's perfect. I have many others. Again, my process is right from the beginning when patients walk in the door all the way through the entire visit. You got my ideas about Facebook and you can certainly share our posts from Chiropractic Science and share them on your page. That's what we have them there for, so feel free to do that. You can go to chiropracticscience.com, link to any of the stuff there. How about that spinal screenings out in the public? One of the things that chiropractic science has shown is that people improve their reaction times. Grip strength has improved, heart rate variability has improved. There's lots of things that the chiropractor may not know about, but ... For example, at spinal screenings there is a simple way to check for reaction time where you use a hockey puck on a I don't know if I cut into your ideas, but I just wanted to put some of that out there.
