Epicenter,

Thanks for the offer, think I'll use this as an opportunity to put out a "wish list" of questions:

1) When can we expect some news on the Allegra patent interference suit?

2) When do they expect to file their next NDA for other forms of Xopenex delivery? Is this contingent on getting this nebulized form approved first?

3) Their latest quarterly mail-out said they got Formoterol by Phase II I believe. What is the current timetable to getting an NDA filed on that one?

4) What is management's philosophy re: stock splits and the timing thereof?

5) Are there any plans for using their stock as a form of "currency" with which to make strategic acquisitions?

I obviously can't expect you to get answers to all these but if any of these issues are addressed I'd be interested to know what they had to say about them. Would also appreciate any comments from the cyber-peanut galley (i.e. this thread!).

My understanding is that this event is a "coming out party" of sorts for SEPR. This is a Health Care conference and not a Biotech conference. SEPR is gonna be the little kid on the block here, amongst the Merck's and Pfizers of the world. Would be interested to see if you can confirm or deny my understanding about this.

If SEPR is gonna start to be compared with the huge pharmaceutical companies, its $3 Bill. market cap. is gonna start to look mighty tiny real fast! I am betting that this conference is gonna spark a nice, slow, point-a-day rally all the way to $120.

In the fluoxetine (Prozac) conference call, they mentioned "CNS franchise". Does sibutramine (Meredia) figure in this? What advantages might there be to an ICE Meredia?

Besides fluoxetine and sibutramine, what else might appear in a CNS franchise? Anything like Risperdal or Paxil? Anything for epilepsy or parkinsonism?

Thanks for the offer!
