339 meningo patients (1/19/99); 584 trauma (1/14/99) Trigger: Ellen Martin Gun: XOMA When: 3 p.m. and now. Where: Berkley. BTW I am having trouble with the post on total deaths. Just do not make any sense. <g> Bluegree, glad your back and redeeming yourself with that splendid info., almost a book on the Host Defense Mechanism. Wonder where Robert_K was and why he never comes up with anything new!

Bluegreen, any link to seasonality of trauma cases? I would think, various forms of trauma decline during the winter, stabbings', gunshots and etc but that other types might increase due to more serious multiple traffic accidents. Think it would be possible even for me to incorporate such a factor into my graph. Wonder if Robert_K has read the book, on host defense that you discovered, and what he thinks about this information?

Monsanto said this about sweeteners: " Monsanto's Neotame announcement was a low-key, one-sentence mention in the company's report on 1998 financial results. "We didn't want to raise expectations because it takes a fair amount of time to get sweeteners approved," said Lori Fisher, a Monsanto spokeswoman." I thought Thaumatin a XOMA sweetener already had approval? I still think of this as a sleeper, that could bring in big bucks if they could ever get it licensed to a company that would really market it.
