We might question your judgment about that kind of a transition, and you are finding out about that; but, nonetheless, every single time I go to a pharmacist, it is the same thing--they care. They care about their patients. Again, I have so many stories, but it would take forever for me to recount all the stories of all of the pharmacies I have gone to in my congressional district over the last 9 years. I have 24 counties. I have a lot of local pharmacies, as you might imagine, and those pharmacists are among the most respected folks in the community. They are right up there with the clergymen; so that tells you something about them and about their profession and about how folks look up to them and about how folks depend upon them. As you just said, they are the folks who get called when they are worried about their prescriptions. They are the folks who can be reached the most easily. Other professionals can be reached, but pharmacists are right there at the ready, and that is very important.
