Cacaito, this ICOS info indicates some companies are able to get the information out on a timeley basis. Also indicates English is a hard language to understand. Icos released preliminary data from that trial in September. The company said the 44-patient overseas study found that men who received the drug had ''significant improvement'' in their ability to achieve an erection over men treated with a placebo. On Thursday, the AFX financial wire service reported that French urologist Albert Leriche said that IC351 could win approval within a year or two. He also said the drug can enable users to achieve an erection for a 24-hour period, far longer than Viagra. Cacaito, what is the subject of longer? If Bob Dole used this product he would not worry about becoming president but rather about becoming permanent. BTW. No one explained how having kids at a later age assures they will be around to take care of the parents. And to opalapril, European stocks may get smashed but the money may flow to the U.S. Probably first to U.S. Treasuries but perhaps even to equities. The funds will need to be invested somewhere and the U.S. will be perceived as a safe haven. The crisis may provide cover and opportunity for those companies interested in acquiring an initial position in target companies. The V.P. of Paraguay was killed today by grenades and small arms today, borders closed. Who cares , as the attention of the U.S. is focused elsewhere. In 1942 Peru, from Ecuador's point of view, took half of Ecuador. No one in the U.S. cared because the focus was on a bigger problem. Perhaps all this is coincidence but even little kids realize they can get away with all kinds of crap when their parents are occupied in some other matter.
