Thanks for your response. I understand that you are not making any negative comments about AIT 082 and that you care about anecdotal evidence. I am not sure, however, what you mean by "dubious" in this context. I am biased in this regard, but I submit that there are several interesting aspects to SHOWME217's post that lead me to believe that it is authentic. That he does not know how to spell the CEO's name and does not refer at all to any of the published studies indicates to me that he is not familiar with the literature. It seems, as he says, that he went into the trenches. He knows that they are Canadian trials and the surrounding circumstances, facts you would not likely get just by reading the message boards. The incidents that he describes, like the resumption of the activities of daily living, recalling how to play the piano, recalling ah, negative feelings about a wife, seem to me to be exactly what would happen with patients with restoration of memory. To be sure, the degree of restoration and the baselines and each and every other test that would have been done had it been an efficacy test is absent. Nevertheless, they are exactly the kind of things the caretakers would talk about. The quote he attributes to one of them is stated as I imagine they would say it. That is why I feel the episodes described are authentic. I think he stumbled on to the testing somehow, learned about it that way, and was mightily impressed ... more or less as I did in the tests preceding the Canadian ones. That is why I think his post and the supportive sentiments expressed therein are authentic. If you mean the proof of the value of the AIT, based on these stories alone, is dubious, I agree with you completely.
