I would like to see that less diluted, actually, by what the other things that are going on, which I know need to go on, but I do feel that it is a sort of process where perhaps as time goes on with this process that actually it becomes something which is sort of founded in indigenous medicine and has a little bit of the other stuff on the side. You know what I mean?
