I am David Mathew Innis, though my friends call me Matt. I am a practicing chiropractor in North Carolina USA. I performed my prerequisite studies through Indiana University and graduated from Logan College of Chiropractic in 1982. I opened my practice in Charlotte, NC the following year and have been active since.

Welcome, new editor! We're very glad you've joined us. Here are pointers for a quick start. Also, when you get a chance, please read The Editor Role. You can look at Getting Started and our help system for other introductory pages. It is also important, for project-wide matters, to join the Citizendium-L (broadcast) mailing list. Announcements are also available via Twitter. You can test out editing in the sandbox if you'd like. If you need help to get going, the forum is one option. That's also where we discuss policy and proposals. You can ask any administrator for help, too. Just put a note on their "talk" page. Again, welcome and thank you! We appreciate your willingness to share your expertise, and we hope to see your edits on Recent changes soon.

Warmest welcome Matt, you did some really outstanding work on Wikipedia and I'm so glad to see you here Gareth Leng 07:42, 29 November 2006 (CST)

Thank you Matt for your comments on the Biology Talk Page. Perhaps you would like to start some discussion in the Healing Arts Workgroup? Personally, I'd appreciate it. Nancy Sculerati MD 09:05, 30 November 2006 (CST)

Speaking for myself, I would say there are no hard rules established here. Perhaps as a long-term New Yorker, that seems fine to me, on the other hand, it can be uncomfortable to be without direction. I don't know that I can give you any except to suggest that you post actively. Larry Sanger has told me that he hasn't got to the Healing Arts Forum yet, so we would have to post on "Applied Arts-Other". That's seems ok, just add "Healing Arts" to the title of any post and that way we can identify the Healer group. Personally, I think it might be nice just to introduce ourselves. The concept of a 'healing arts' category is a bit novel, but there is no question that there needs to be communication and collaboration between all the arts in healing, and there is no reason to call alternative medicine, and the art part in conventional medicine, "science", when it is not. Certainly, there is all kinds of potential animosities that can spring up. As an ENT surgeon, I assure you there is plenty of friction within every specialty of medicine - let alone between say, surgeons and chiropracters. But how interesting if we could be respectful of each other and actually write about what we do for direct public consumption. Anyway, if you're game - I am. Perhaps there is a topic we can collaborate on for a new article? Nancy Sculerati MD 18:36, 30 November 2006 (CST)


I tried to e-mail several full text articles just now. I'd like to make sure that you get them (there are about half a dozen) and that you can read the full text of the article. I hope that we can go over them together. e-mail me when you have some time and maybe we can arrange an hour or so to each be available to e-mail each other in discussion. Thanks, Nancy

Hey, Matt, glad that you got them. Can we go over them tomorrow at about 10 PM? Nancy Sculerati MD 22:31, 11 December 2006 (CST)

Thanks, Matt. I'm going to look at my e-mail now. Nancy Sculerati MD 21:26, 12 December 2006 (CST)

Congratulations on the Chiropractic approval Matt!! Nancy Sculerati MD 19:07, 28 December 2006 (CST)
