When talking to children and beginning with the story and then talking about diabetes, we found that the children listened intently. They were eager to take the information back to their parents and talk about what they had learned in school that day.

I'm very much aware that it's not something that's well known. But there has to be a beginning for everything. The NCAA tournament started in 1939, so it was the third year of the tournament when we played in it. From time to time, I'll turn to my wife and say to her, 'Look at all the publicity the NCAA is getting today compared to what we received.' It's overlooked, but it's listed in the NCAA record books as a Final Four.

I just see all those shots spinning around the basket. We made that run at the beginning of the third quarter, but after that, every time we hit a shot they answered.

From the beginning our goal was to help employers adopt a product development approach to their health care benefits, The old methods are just not enough anymore to control health care costs.
