> This leads my mind to a very similar idea I think we discussed here before. . .I picture the sessions as mini-plays, perhaps a stage production or even filmed and put together in some format that allows the doctor's day to be played out through his patients. . .but then. . .this takes me back even further, to wondering what actor would play the characters, or better yet what the good old doctor even looks like, which is something that was not resolved and may very well not ever be resolved.
Sponsorship can make all our dreams come true, as Chris pointed out.
Oh, and another thing. . .I can't stand the sound of my own voice on tape, so it would have to be an actor with a trained voice for that kind of stuff.
