Well, how do you determine that?
Well, because they're people that I know, or else if they're new people, through people that I trust who know them already or through Congressmen or senators who know them and say, “Support him, he'11 help you if he gets in.”
This takes a lot of doing, a lot of research, doesn't It, to draw up a list, because your list is extensive.
Well, it's not very difficult really, because if you're used to, who's in your line of interest, and you know a lot of people from the past, it all kind of falls in shape. It's as if it's all part of a business you're in. People you know tell you, or you find out easily. It would be terrible to start out fresh.
So now you launch forth into a new era, as you term It, and it's gratifying to know that you're there.
Well, we'll see what comes of it. At any ate, some unexpected good things may happen, like the L-DOPA for Parkinson's disease, like the vaccine for rubella. Some breaks may occur that one can't envisage, that may be very important and exciting. You just have to pray:
Well, thank you very much.
