Chuckle, big chuckles former_pgs<verrrrrrrry big grinS>>>>

I thought that was you but I was being respectful<g>

Tuck found me out over at the Yahoo INGN thread shortly after I came over here<g>

<<I post at Yahoo because it appeals to the down and dirty, lowest common denominator side of my personality.>> <<It's no fun when everyone is nice and respectful..>>

Yup and YUP!!!!!!!

That said, I have 'met' a few very dear, genuine, smart people from the few boards I post regularly(actually only one.INGN..) and a couple of others I make cameo appearances<g>..

A moniker like 'obliteratecancer' (only one I use) doesn't quite fit in with the ELN nor the oil tanker crowd:)

Best,
Zeta

Goddard and waffling..... wandering.... the company was originally "Oncogene Sciences, Inc." They changed the name to OSI when the focus shifted to GPCRs, etc. Big deal at the time.... "we're not an oncology company".

:-)

A couple of years later, they were dumping diabetes and GPCRs to become exclusively an oncology company.

>> public venting into empty space <<

Who knows? It's certainly venting, and that's all I really care about. It became sort of general wisdom, '99-'00, that companies should monitor investment chat boards to see what is being said about them.

>> have some real issues with respect to cost control <<

A flighty, shotgun approach to success, they just plain got lucky when Pfizer merged with WLA. OTOH, it's good to be quick on your feet in biotech space. RCMac or Miljenko may be able to provide color??
