I posted a similar note on MF. Impugning someone's person for comments you disagree with is counter-productive.

First, it stifles debate. People are less likely to raise important issues and questions about a company, its products and technology or valuation, if they expect to be attacked personally for doing so. So, those of us who want to understand the company and its prospects lose.

Second, in doing so you fail to address whatever issues the person raises, further lowering the quality of discussion.

Third, it drives away serious investors and biotechnologists who have a significant contribution to make to this debate. This thread becomes a waste of time for all of us.

Fourth, it's disrespectful of the person you are attacking.

Guys, let's stay on point. This has been a somewhat useful forum for the exchange of information and opinion ... let's try and keep it that way.

TIA,

Peter
