  The two-nucleon sector is near an infrared fixed point of QCD and as a result
the S-wave scattering lengths are unnaturally large compared to the effective
ranges and shape parameters. It is usually assumed that a lattice QCD
simulation of the two-nucleon sector will require a lattice that is much larger
than the scattering lengths in order to extract quantitative information. In
this paper we point out that this does not have to be the case: lattice QCD
simulations on much smaller lattices will produce rigorous results for nuclear
physics.
