That's what I suspected.  Insurance companies can't seem to get thier heads
out of their a**es.  And while there are exceptions, most medical
professionals can't, either.  At my church there are two doctors (and
friends of mine) who think what I'm doing is nuts; we agree to disagree, or
beat our swords into plowshares, praise the Lord.  A fellow member and
biology professor, on the other hand, wants to learn more about it.  HE'S
the one who deserves an MD in my book.
