Thanks Jim. I was actually looking for a reason to stop shorting drug stocks such as Millenium, etc.. Guess I'll just keep hitting em every time they run up on some silly news. Funny, that we are now so saturated with a new study each night on Rather, Brokaw, etc. that we can't remember what it was about the next day. "New hope for.... patients this evening.... " isn't any new hope at all.

I also believe that Big Drug is going to be revisited soon by the trial lawyers now that they are finishing up on tobacco and asbestos. I have no doubt that they will convince eight people somewhere that Tylenol eats livers and they will win big, big money.

Geo.

My friends fiance (only 30!) recently found out he has ALS....

What do you think the chances of a cure or life extending drug etc for that disease are?

You are a neurologist right? If not sorry for the question...
