I found one of the links that we were talking about,[http://www.ccgpp.org/delphi.pdf LBP guidelines].  This is the newest version that basically is the evolution of the [[Mercy Guidelines]].  There are more - a couple for nonmusculoskeletal conditions that you might be interested in as well.  Especially notice the last three or four pages where it talks about treatment frequencies and red flags.  Depending on the doctor, he/she can run the tests to help rule in or out those conditions, or can refer them to someone else to do itWhen you talk about [[Integrative medicine]] from our perspective, it basically means that there is less need for us to do it ourselves.  [[User:D.

[http://www.ccgpp.org/2.pdf Here] is the current review of the literature for non-NMS conditions for chiropractic care (not just spinal manipulation) which might include other CAM techniques like massage, etc..  I doubt that acupuncture or homeopathy is considered in these though.

Howard, Happy New Year! You might take a look at this new user's bio. I think you might be very interested in getting to know him. [[User:Milton Beychok|Milton Beychok]] 05:23, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
 
== copyedit on [[Boiling point]] ==
 
I made two minor style copyedits and removed the "content is from Wikipedia" notice because of Milt's notice on the talk page.  You might want to check to make sure my changes are appropriate and then maybe change the version to be approved before Matt gets to it. --[[User:Joe Quick|Joe Quick]] 16:54, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

== defunct workgroups ==
 
Your said: "''several defunct food- and agriculture-related workgroups''".  Which do you have in mind? [[User:Chris Day|Chris Day]] 19:05, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
 
:IIRC, at various times I've seen Agriculture, Food Sciences, and vaguely remember something like Culinary Arts. [[User:Howard C. Berkowitz|Howard C. Berkowitz]] 19:15, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

Hey, Howard, how come you don't put your sig in that edit? [[User:Hayford Peirce|Hayford Peirce]] 22:26, 11 January 2009 (UTC)
 
== DC boundary oddities ==
 
I'm not sure about that "boundary-goes-down-the-middle-of-the-Potomac" thing.  DC government's own GIS server, as well as Google Maps and MyTopo, show the boundary as the right bank of the river; i.e., all the water belongs to DC, and Virginia ends at the water's edge.  I also seem to recall seeing signs on the highway bridges that announce "Welcome to Va or DC" at the bank, not in the middle.
 
Also, all those maps show the Pentagon as being entirely inside Virginia.
 
I seem to recall that somebody made practical use of this anomaly.  There is or was a restaurant in Arlington or Alexandria that built a pier out into the river so they could serve liquor during days/hours when it was illegal to do so in Virginia but legal in DC.
 
Sorry to be so picky.  But I believe there's a place for us nit-pickin' fact checkers in CZ -- just a surely as there's a special circle of Hell reserved for us!  [[User:Bruce M.Tindall|Bruce M.Tindall]] 00:40, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
