EXCELLENT post Gene.Take Vivus for example: Suppose -there was an open info site as to a)exactly what PadmaNathan had received and b)from whom, INCLUDING VIVUS AND PFIZER. -SUPPOSE again that we saw that Vivus gave him $25000 (hypothetical) [" pocket money ", gg, " travel, meals, 'educational" etc expenes] and Pfizer gave him $150,000 ( hypothetical), for same. -when Padma comes out, 3 MONTHS!! ( hypothetical) AFTER pocketing $150,000 and says " forget it guys, everything I wrote in the New Engl J of Med 3 months ago about Muse's 65% efficacy is WRONG, AND, by the way, I like Pfizer's product better even though by golly I HAVE NO DEFINITE DATA ON IT, then I ask you Gene, if Barrons would have been able to sell that kind of trash to it's readers?
