Have you seen anything published on that yet?
An insulin paper would be just the thing to
freak the shorts out, get them to cover...get
this thing noticed again. How do you suppose
they "transfected HT1080" cells--this is not
familiar jargon, so I looks like it does not
have anything to do with Genovo.

Five years ago...
stanford.edu

I don't want to go on and on about the stock,
it's really a pretty sad story for us commoners.
And I certainly don't want to talk about where
my mental stop loss is going to be--not that the
bastards would go shooting for stops to get little
ol me out of ARIA. I guess my loss in ARIA is
about seven grand...I could probably go twice
that before I finally snap. Oh, don't like that
language--I heard something about a daytrader
going beserk...I am just losing profits locked in
from my other stocks...not too big a deal.

However...I do think it is time to talk to the big Cheese
Berger. It was surprisingly easy to get through to LaMarche...
I was a little flumoxed when I spoke to that CFO, nervous.
I'll write down my questions ahead of time next time so
I do not forget.

But first I'll give them a chance to crank out that share-
holder letter next month--and then I'm going to start
asking some very pointed questions--for instance
what about redeeming the toxic shares? Maybe that is
an option?

You know, I wonder if Amgen or one of the other big
biotechs is selling common to try and destroy Ariad--
then they come back later for portion they want on
the cheap. It would be nice to be able to find out
who the bad guys are.

Say Martin--Did you see how much Gates is going to
throw at biotech research and healthcare in his life--
most of his wealth. Wild, maybe Ariad needs one of
those Angels--even a little angel--after all, how
much can research monkeys cost? Probably a lot less
then the BOD and Berger are paid each year.
