Well, here are the correct answers to the question:

Question #1 for TA: Does the Table 34-8 in Goodman and Gilman list include Viagra
(sildenafil)? Yes or no?

TA response "No". Correct, sildenafil is not included in the chart. None of the products have ever been studied for ED. Any relationship of the products listed on this chart is strictly conjecture by the poster.

Question #2 for TA :Does the May,17, 1996 Science article on retinal degeneration
refer specifically to PDE-VI in mice (not PDE-Vs which you have incorrectly stated in
your posts). Yes or no?

TA Response "It does not list any PDE by name". Wrong,the article focuses on the retinal cyclic guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cGMP) phosphodiesterase and its subunits alpha, beta and gamma "a key regulator of phototransduction in the vertebrate visual system". These are PDE-VI enzymes not PDE-V enzymes as you have incorrectly referred to in your many posts. I would suggest purchasing a more authoritative book on PDEs before spreading misinformation to potential VVUS investors.

Question #3: Do you know how much harm you are doing to potential novice investors
who read your glowing posts and think that VVUS is a sure thing without any risks?
Yes or no?

TA Response: <No response> No surprise, I didn't expect you to respond. Any discussion of Pfizer,Lipitor and Trovan is irrelevant to the topic being discussed.

To all VVUSers, this type of misinformation and company hype is very risky. Learn the facts and understand the types of person who is posting on these Boards.Read how they treat people. Do you trust this person to be providing accurate, unbiased information and data? Check carefully their answers and non-responses. Please be careful. Again, if any doubts me , I encourage you to read the Newbridge Networks Board over the last two months and check out the current price.

I would appreciate to hear from other posters concerning this dialogue.
