Hi, Rick. FlatTaxman and I would like to talk to you about settling this alleged '629 patent infringement. Both Cadus and Sibia have dynamite researchers and science. A ruling against us could temporarily set back some very important work. The same can be said for Sibia's position. What do you say you bring your people, we'll bring ours and let's work something out ? Better yet, let's think merger, then we can sue everyone else out here infringing on the patent :-)

Seriously, do you know anything about the status of proceedings ? And please no geers or sneers if Sibia wins. We promise not to do the same.

Regards

Dave
