Professor Niman,

Is there such a thing as a dumb question?

When is a question satisfied? When the responder declares it so?

<< I think it's clear that many of the readers of this board still lack a clear understanding of the science and technology behind drug development. >> I assume.....(this).....was made in jest!

Henry, I have read virtually all of your posts for more than a year. I have to say that legitimate and reasonably precise questions often do not elicit congruent answers from you. Like a politician, sometimes your answers actually fit a slightly different question than is asked. Furthermore, they often take the long way around the barn. Perhaps you could more effectively spread the Ligand gospel by addressing yourself to explanations that intellectually challenged lurkers such as myself can readily understand. I really don't think the more advanced threadsters will mind if you spell things out, at my level, rather repeating higher level renditions over and over.

As to your recent posts in response to questions concerning the recent press release, I am sincerely sorry to say that I was appalled by your condescending attitude. It seems out of character, especially considering to whom it seemed to be addressed. This person sets, by example, the highest standard that this thread could ever hope to achieve and does not deserve the kind of treatment you have provided.

In case you haven't noticed Henry, you seem to have a propensity to attract "distractors." As I still consider myself a Henry Niman "supporter," I hope you will consider the forgoing as constructive, FWIW.
