Boston & Chicago Followup – Interesting Encounters, & Perspective  
  This introduces the notion of speaking directly with certain key people (Katie Couric, Steven Jobs, Dr. Frist, and those interested in our Business Plan).

 
Simulated Conversations  
Katie Couric – Conversation With Someone Doing Good!
  We need her to recognize a promising R/D effort that could, with the proper backing, provide a viable cure for colon cancer on a macro population basis. Just like making polio and smallpox into mere footnotes after their historical ravages on mankind.

Steven Jobs – Conversation With A Mover & Shaker  
  He is sitting on the world's most perfect Virtual Colonoscopy Workstation. We need to give him that message, show him our software innovations, and hope that he sees something inspiring.

Dr. Frist – Conversation With A Physician Of Credibility & Clout  
  This is the one person that insurance industry executives would have to listen to regarding VC screening and why insurance companies must reimburse VC procedures.

 
Katie Couric CD  
Confronting Colon Cancer.
  Katie explains the numbers and the curability. There is a wonderful clip on animated polyp growth. There is light humor; a discussion of the colon cancer; the reality of advanced colon cancer and experts begging us to get screened. All so we can be cured. THIS IS A MUST WATCH.

Having a Colonoscopy
  Watch Katie Couric prepare for and have a colonoscopy. See that it's 'Not so bad'.

Exploring the Virtual Colonoscopy
  Dr. Michael Macari explains the new virtual CT colonoscopy exam to Katie Couric.

View a 'Live' Colonoscopy
  Katie's NBC producer Nancy Steiner, also undergoes a televised fiberoptic colonoscopy, with an easier bowel prep than Katie. Nancy has a significant family history so she needs early colon screening and she wants people to know this is not a big deal.

Prescreening: Just Do It
  Good discussion from patients and expert doctors (Drs. Boyd & Levin); Getting screened for colon cancer is a family priority and provides a good discussion of various screening alternatives. Listen carefully to the patients and their stories.
