Thank you Rishi. Like I have even said before, many people do not
truly understand what the Bates Method is. That is why I think it
would be best to get together and conduct some studies, then contact
researchers in various parts of the world, maybe in Europe, since they
seem more open-minded and more socialistic than the capitalists here
in the US.
