squetch, re:>>comments from head of Human Genome Project<< OK, the government health agencies can do it all more efficiently than private biotech companies. And he (Dr Collins) wants BIG PHARMA to be involved in all of it--strong allies with a lot of political dollars to spend to get their research "free" rather than pay royalties to those money-grubbing biotech companies in which we own stock--ouch! This type of thinking will set the Biotech Century back 100 years. Ha! {; >

"Using technology that isn't available yet but that could be developed quickly...." Who will develop that technology if the small biotech companies aren't allowed some kind of patent protections?!

I think Andy commented recently that competition wasn't the biggest problem, but rather the FDA.

Interesting article.

BTW, squetch, when you become a 50-yr-old-less-than-studly person, there will always be the dependable VD INC Topical Gel Treatment for ED. ;)
