Yeah, well, thank you. You're a great spokesman for it. So thank you. Thank you. So going forward, our next show for Health Chatter, we are going to be addressing the issue of grief. So Clarence and I are going to look at that topic. And there's a lot of things that we're grieving about individually as a nation and as a world that certainly affects our health.

I worked with Jay when he was at the health department on his first round, when he was involved with the diabetes unit, and we were great, great colleagues. I've always been impressed with Jay because somehow or other, he always asks the good, hard question. And we don't always have the answers, but at any rate, he always asks some really great questions. So thanks, Jay, for being with us.
