<Glaxo is highly regarded. I could never understand why. They
make corporate decisions by committee.>

Glaxo was trading below $20 at the time of the Affymax acqusition that Miljenko mentioned. Today they are trading in the $60's. The investor who has been compounding 50% per year doesn't care whether their decisions came out of committees or monkeys rotating 96-well plates.

Is there an investable biotech corporation anywhere that doesn't operate by committee? To do otherwise would be to exclude input from several critical disciplines. Solo-ing is good in cowboy movies, but not good bio-molecular science.
