Hey Cheryl,

First, isn't most of the surplus-if it ever materializes-directly from the SS surplus? Besides, doesn't Clinton owe us a tax break like he promised back in 92?

Second and most important— a little birdy told me yesterday after coming back from a derm meeting in SF, that Lgnd's drug for KS (panretin) has a very good chance of being DOA (Dead on approval). Like I have posted many moons ago, there was discussion that today's protein inhib cocktails have virtually elimanted KS. The cases are so few and far between that Ligand better hope that Pan. gets other off label uses. Otherwise, the drug will just collect dust on the pharma shelves. Though lgnd's drug was very quickly mentioned via slide presentation-as I was told- it was at least mentioned.

What happened to U of W this weekend?

Bye for now...
