Cool little piece of information ...

The chief of space medicine at NASA, Dr. James D. Polk consulted with the Chilean government during the recent mining crises and his strategic planning helped save numerous lives!

Even cooler, Dr. James (J.D.) Polk is a D.O. !!

I wonder if D.O.s have practice rights in space ... ;)
