Warning: mildly offensive post follows. (re: MCHM)

Wow! I guess you can get financing for any silly idea, so long as it sounds like a real pharmaceutical startup.

Let's see...MCHM wants to find out if ibuprofen works better when you rub it on your knee. Maybe they can cross-license their "miracle absorbing agent" to ZONA and they can claim Vasomax acts even faster if you rub it on your wang. But wait -- someone already did that study, and it doesn't. Rats!

We investors are in the wrong business -- the real money appears to be in starting silly companies, and it doesn't appear to be very difficult. Let's see...since studies show that eating cruciferous vegetables decreases the risk of colon cancer, we'll patent and submit an NDA for a broccoli suppository. "AnuChem's new, patented formulation fights cancer and is tapered for easy insertion." It's worth millions!
