Dr. Mark Whitacre: Paul, over the next five years, cancer is predicted as surpassed heart disease as the number one calls of death. It's tremendous problem, both in the United States and the world. Actually, one out of every two-and-a-half people are expected to develop cancer, sometime in their life-time. Paul A. Willis: Yeah, we're aware of those statistics. They're really unfortunate. I think that really kind of precipitates. Our corporate mission for Cypress is really in the area of prevention of cancer and really promoting an overall healthy lifestyle, flagship product being primarily in the area of selenium supplementation and its research supported cancer prevention effort. But really, not even something like a selenium supplementation should be considered silver bullet or stand-alone. Our corporate focus is really looking at supporting a whole healthy lifestyle. Selenium and SelenoExcell play a role in that, of course, but a healthy lifestyle of eating properly, not smoking, maintaining healthy lifestyle related to alcohol and exercise is really an overall lifestyle focus that hopefully could bring those statistics down. The unfortunate thing is not only, I mean, we all are aware of people who have cancer and the effect that has on their life in a terminal sense. But it has a huge economic effect. If you've ever had an experience of having terminal cancer in your family, you know how it affects everybody in the whole family. So, when we talk about those kind of statistics where every two to three people in the US will have an experience with cancer, it really does have a strong economic and emotional effect. We find it a worthy corporate mission, is to work in this area, promoting a healthy lifestyle in cancer prevention.
