My wife and I are texting back and forth trying to figure out ways to track down a reputable oral surgeon for our son's wisdom tooth extraction.
I suggest the usual: Ask a trusted friend. Utilize social media.
She responds a few minutes later: "I found one, in-network, and not far away!"

TIL why alcohol is measured in "proof". Read the following and tell me they weren't drunk when they came up with this.
"Alcohol content was determined via a rather crude test. Basically, the government would soak a gun pellet with alcohol and try to set fire to the gunpowder. If it lit, the alcohol content in the liquor was high enough gunpowder to ignite, the liquor was to be deemed to be a “proof spirit” — as in, there was proof it contained a high amount of alcohol — and was taxed at a higher rate."
