Leeds Castle had a conference last weekend on microsurgery developed by Dr. Congers and Douglas Bogart, and this weekend I think they are having a conference on breast cancer.
These are international conferences.
And here you have a cross fertilization of ideas.
Yes.
The same thing you were talking about earlier.
Yes. But this happens relatively seldom and it costs money for people to come long distances from around the world, and that's very important. But there could be smaller conferences. Actually this group which Cranston has supported among people living in the United States -- they can come for two or three days. You don't have to fly to England to go to a conference.
No, but do encourage him, if he does that sort of thing, to not hold such conferences within New York City or any metropolitan area. They should be isolated.
So there are no blandishments, you see.
