I hope they have something. A cure for cancer etc.. would be awesome.

In the meantime we have hype and hope. I'll be a buyer in the future if the trials are what they hope.

Zeev, all we need to do is throw out enough topics and discussion until we find something we can agree on. :-)

P.S. You know another great thing about cable modems is you don't get disconnected every 10 minutes for inactivity. I can stay on for something like 10 hours and not be disconnected. No more annoying phone dialups either. I'm extremely impressed. ASDL will be beta tested in Hawaii pretty soon but GTE is pricing it out of the residential budget. I'm hearing hundreds to use the service?

Aloha

<<Off topic>> I'm not one to advocate investing in ENMD, but, I think that if the data discussed so far is accurate you will see UNBELIEVABLE pressure placed on everyone involved to accelerate this in ways that have never been seen before. Rest assured that the phase one trials will start within 6-9 months, if they are as positive as the animal tests there will be no holding back the forces that will push this drug forwards. Look at the acceleration that took place with some AIDS drugs in the past three years. The pressure brought to bear there will look like nothing compared to a cancer drug that "cures" cancer.

ENMD is certainly speculation, but, its also probably has the potential to be the biggest home run in the history of pharm's. If Viagra is a $5B drug, then this one would be a $50B drug. Hardly the same class as KTEL.

OFF TOPIC - IF (let's hope, but it is unlikely) ENMD's drug is as effective in humans as mice it will not take 5 years - I suggest 2 years - one year to get the trials going and one year to observe it is a miracle cure.
