<please help!> I'm not really the one to be chipping in here, as technically I am of little help. But, this statement- <biotech companies are not going to be patenting SNPs or snip maps, it will be public domain.> I think this statement by INCY is quite revealing: "We expect LifeSeq Gold to become to the scientific community what 'Bloomberg®' information represents to the financial community -- a never-ending source of new and updated information geared to the end user.'' The idea is that the flood of information is so complex, and continuous that keeping up with it will mandate continuous investment. I think to assume that there will be a "Rand McNally" road map updated every 5 years when the Feds put a new super-highway in between say GreenBay and Milwaukee is what you're talking about.... what INCY is talking about is keeping up with that damaged yellow light at the corner of 1st and Main... in Moosejaw, Manitoba... here's some INCY press releases: biz.yahoo.com biz.yahoo.com biz.yahoo.com It remains to be seen what actually can be patented... and INCY seems to be saying they have other value. As a wise man keeps saying on these threads... it's going to be exciting. DAK
