A New Idea
A new idea
is first condemned
as ridiculous
and then is dismissed as trivial,
until finally
it becomes
what everybody knows.

About the Author: Frank M. Painter
I was introduced to Chiro.Org in early 1996, where my friend Joe Garolis helped me learn HTML, the "mark-up language" for websites. We have been fortunate that journals like JMPT have given us permission to reproduce some early important articles in Full-Text format. Maintaining the Org website has been, and remains, my favorite hobby.
How true. The first hypothesis that the world was spherical – not flat – was greeted with hostility. Then it became a matter of scientific discussion. Then testing. Then fact. I anticipate the same for Chiropractic.
