Sonny:

I was of course kidding. When I heard about COMS I though of you and was sympathetic, especially since WLA clobbered me yesterday. My fault actually as I put that one away in my IRA and did not think that I had to watch it diligently. I suppose even if I had, I would not have realized the import of the problem with the drug in terms of the stock performance, certainly not to the extent of a 27 point drop. The more I read up on this, the less sense it all made to me. Drug thearpy should always be under the supervision of a physician and if the dosage is not right or if there is reaction, then remedial actions are taken. The liver possibility was known ahead of time. I do not see WLA ditching the drug even if hundreds of cases pop up when more than 800,000 are taking the medicine. Even if 5 percent have problems with it and assuming the problems are correctable, then the other 95 percent are being assisted. Maybe I am not looking at this correctly.

In any event, the techs may be in rut for awhile more thanks to Kurlack. The way Intel went down today, I would be fearful of what might transpire tomorrow. We'll see. So far the Globex looks ok and the foreign markets do not appear to be too extreme.
