To reply to the original poster if he watches this repost; Thank you for your honesty. I was joking to my wife yesterday that doctors would start wearing sponsor jackets like racing drivers soon with patches for name brand medications.

Only slightly releveant but it's great to see that some physicians acknowledge that the game exists.
