Hi Arthur

I totally agree - esp on the PFE part ....

(btw - didn't know till now that Alimera had started out
with $90 million - rich friends ?)

I just posted this addendum to a poster on Yahoo

==============================

rad - well stated and you've captured
the susbstance of the call ...

I would like to add two points that are
not necessarily minor

* the pfizer stuff IS proceeding (whatever
it is) and they are booking payments NOT
as revenue but as deferred revenue ...
iow - there is future revenue *already*
booked but not released to the P&L

* a VERY COOL question came up from
one of the people phoning in ...

(1) imagine that IIuvien was approved for
DME

(2) imagine that some other company
wanted to do trials on DME and submit
to FDA

(3) would the FDA change the definition of
"Standard of Care" to = the IIuvien results and hence going forward any competitor would have to show results at
least = to IIuvien ...

The answer to the question was - of course - no one can speculate on what the
FDA might do.

Nonetheless - it is a VERY interesting question ....

==============================

regards
John
