It is. But look for a press release soon about a new off-label use for one of Lygand's drugs....

< Henry, either the naysaying dorks on this thread can't read... >

Well, I can't believe this name calling!

Now on to our reading comprehension lesson:

-- Message #15387: A press release: "...today announced the election ... of James R. Mirto, Vice President Marketing and Business Development, to officer of the corporation."

-- Message #15388: Henry opines, "Promotion of the director of marketing and sales is a good sign that Ligand expects him to be VERY busy in the upcoming months."

(Note carefully: In the press release the person's title is "Marketing and Business Development." In Henry's spin message it gets changed to "marketing and sales." Hmmmm.)

-- Message #15391: I then posted a message saying that maybe this promotion was just a promotion, not a "sign."

Now here's the problem. You bring up an entirely different press release about a newly created position, call people dorks, criticize their reading comprehension and just rail on anyone who would dare to criticize Henry's comments about it.

Of course, no one ever did.
