Symara,
I'll post more on this subject when I get home tonight (I'm at work, but not getting much done...  ), but if you'll send me a private message with your email address, I'll send you some really good material that I've gathered about the benefits of ADR vs. fusion that you can give to your husband to read, if you'd like.
Jess
