Bulba,

First thank you for all the work you have done to set this up but I find after realizing that the emphasis appears to be on "winning" -----when I thought it was for charity and that it would also bring attention to some of the issues we face in health care and the work that is being done------ I regretfully will be withdrawing from the contest.

As you know I did choose these from my cousin's fund. I was not expecting to be the winner but to perhaps set up threads for these drugs in order for them to receive attention for those who may need them for a loved one suffering from cancer or diabetes etc. I am still happy to update those sites and will do so with pertinent chart information, news and any other item of relevance. The more attention brought to these companies, the easier it will be for them to obtain future financing to continue much needed research.

Although sadly will be withdrawing my entry but will meet my charity commitments and follow your thread to do so. One thing I abhor in this field is the trading/shorting behavior designed to manipulate the stock price with total disregard as to the ramifications of that behavior. I am aware that it not what is being promoted here, but neither is any light being shed on these upcoming drugs.

Thank you in advance for taking me out of the contest and good luck to all. Still feel free to post or discuss on any discussion thread I have started. This is a personal decision and in no way reflects my feelings of the individuals involved in this country. It is still a wonderful boon for the charities involved and I sincerely do wish you all the best of luck and my admiration for your doing this for charity.
