Casaubon, I have a very close friend who is a respectable Biotech Professor and head of a researchers team in the field of cancer at Memorial Sloan Kettering in NYC, and I learned a thing or two about the real research and pure stock hype and GREED.

As a result of such hype I was lured in hopping to put my terminally ill father on a test program which I hoped may prolong his life, only to find out that the BioTech company was not interested because my father age and the advanced stage of the cancer, resulting in the possibility that he may "destroy" their statistics.

I do not want to go forth on this painful experience but IMHO many Biotech Cieftains are no better than Mother F*^&^ and horse traders that you have also with the big drug companies.

So much for those companies, their only motive is GREED not science. Science is done in lots of other places but not those F*^&*^% start ups who do nothing more than steal a concept and then commercialize it.

Later I found out that the rumor of cure was false and they are very early in clinical trials and the stock droped $20 or $30

So please do not post to me about the greatness of Biotech companies........ it is to personal and to painful!!!! (I know you work for one)

Thank you
Haim

Well Haim, I thought we had cordial and respectful conversations. I see now that I was mistaken.

Would you care to compare to salaries??? (not to mention the length of time it took to train in the field). I know it is greedy of me to desire a house for my family. I should have done something important with my life like you.

Sorry about the pain of your loss. My family was decimated by various diseases (including cancer) and freak accidents.

PS I won't post to you any longer.
