In very much the same way, in many applied scenarios, while we may care medically, what matters is that final output, that final piece, but it is hard to track back without doing assessments and careful countermeasures. DOUGLAS WILMORE: I have sort of a broad generic question for the group of people who talked about behavioral things.

GINGER WATSON: We actually took a year and a half to cross-validate one of our studies where we had gathered camera data out on the road. I know it was very, very time consuming, and we were always having to make qualitative judgments.

JOHANNA DWYER: I was very much taken by the self-monitoring quality that might be possible in some of these devices, both the ones we have talked about this afternoon and others, and also very much taken with the notion of prophylactic naps. In trying to put this all together into things like tanks, where there is noise and heat, people are hungry, they cannot eat, or they get six Meals, Ready-to-Eat and they are all chicken a la king for years and years, the problem is how virtual does the virtual reality of a situation like that have to be to get data that are really meaningful to the people who are supposed to be helping the enlisted people?

ner, is going to be a report that will be in high demand, because it has brought together so many ideas, so many innovative approaches, in one place. You rarely find that much in a report like this, so I think it is going to be something that is going to be highly visible and, again, puts more of a challenge on us as a committee and staff to try to be very, very careful and innovative in how we respond to that.
