Right on Tom, but after all the Universities need to conduct research that nobody needs. LOL. However your right the personal touch in all situations of life is what heps, hands hugs, comfort, cuddle, you name it.

Good thing too, I dont want to rush home and start burning my wifes arm just to comfort her! LOL ok I am kidding here folks. Calm down!

I would not have thought that you needed scientists to study this. It is what we all do when someone is sick or in distress or injured. And we have all had our hand held during these difficult times and we felt comforted in the fact that someone cares for us. I would have thought that scientists had better things to do with their money. Maybe they could spend it on more climate change research!
