Martin, Basically, Genzyme the parent has drugs being sold and earnings being made and is a blue chip in the sector. The two kids are basically research shells working on, IMHO, very exciting new products and techniques, but not yet selling diddly squat and in constant need of cash. I think the potential is much greater for the research subs, but the safety is with the parent. My conclusion is, who buys biotech for safety? <g>
