Wow.. I answered your question and you still insult me. There is another saying.. that reminds me of you... it is from Albert Einstein ( you may hear about him when you take college physics)
"Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe".

Maybe next time, you should bark up a smaller dog's tree. Good luck in college kid.

A bad day at school is still better than a good day at work.

a little off topic but i'd just like to throw in my respect to the chiropractic branch of medicine. some years back, i was playing junior hockey in ontario and and being a goalie, i'm was always putting a lot of stress on my spine whether it was just in a normal stance or in the variety of movements us goaltenders do. i frequently saw a chiropractor for adjustments and other exercises i could do to strengthen the muscles of my back. i really don't think i could have been as successful with a normal physician as i did with my chiropractor.

I can also say that I have many classmates that have never been to a chiropractor. However, with sitting in desks all day and being stressed out, I have started adjusting some of them for various issues (and another chiro in my class) and all of them are "amazed". There are lots of alternative therapies out there that work. Yet, most in medicine dismiss them because if it wasn't taught in medical school, it can't be valid. People should be aware that health care is moving more alternative and many people every year are starting to investigate other healing arts. When you step out of the school arena and into the real world of healthcare, you will see this.

Medicine is really trying to cash in on things they dismissed 10 years ago. Since these things are becoming "main stream", they want to be a part of it now. Also, they assert that they should be the ones administering these treatments, since they are MD.. and scientific. Even just 10 short years ago, a lot of MDs told patients NOT to take vitamins... now most regularly recommend them. I think alternative healthcare should be a required class at medical school, to expose future physicians to other alternative treatments that their patients may be receiving.

Chiropractors don't get enough credit. I don't know what the actual term for the problem is, but I just nicknamed it cement block wrists and neck. My wrists/neck crackle and pop whenever I have to rotate them or do strenous activities for long periods with them and if I didn't go to the chiropractor once every two weeks, I would be in so much pain.

I wouldn't also be able to play the viola or write or type.
