Peter,

Yes on 103, but don't forget 205.

Pharmas: I'm trying to figure their future as well. Supposedly a negotiated compromise with Gov is: more patients covered will make up for a shortfall in drug prices. Pharmas resurfaced from the first term Clinton threat quite nicely in early '90s. I don't want to miss a second round but their expiring patents on high $ drugs is concern this time.

With pharmaceutical costs rising at 25% p.a. now + comsumer/healthcare/legislation groups pushing hard for lowering brand prices - I'm counting on Drug Delivery & Generics to be looked at to help the crisis. Lot's of talk about "leveling the playing field" for Generics. Generic competition is very aggressive right now but a few cos have been very kind so far: ADRX, BVF, SKYE, ELAN, KING. (& let's not forget SEPR !)
