do a blood sample and you would it was basically you would you would shop it and a bunch of people who are geneticists would look at his profile look at all of his markers and sort of create a profile and it was a global thing and it was really complicated i imagine that in the current circumstance with the massive mushrooming growth of rare diseases that we have that ai is finding diagnoses way faster way cheaper way more effectively

if you're a hockey fan, it's a phenomenal story because it's not just that they're having a good run.
It's that they, they went into the Valley and now they're coming back out and they've got sort of, they had a plan.
They have a coach, they have a young core of players.

Um,
And I say that because I have bruises on this file.
When I was heritage minister back in 2010, you may have forgotten this story, but I'm going to hold something up.
