Typical " Town/Gown " media posturing - a ploy to attract attention to

themselves. Free advertising.

Often used by companies to attract investors, and by universities to

attract donors. Note that useful *results* or conclusions aren't given.

So what have *we* learned?

Well yes Bill we expect that of *anything* we read in the media. There is

research bias and *gasp* reporting bias .. Most folks here have the intelligence

to recognize the deficits in any reporting and those that are curious enough

will go digging for more. We have the wherewithal to fill in the blanks We

always appreciate when and other members post these articles .. just

another piece of the puzzle which time will prove whether it fits, or not, and I

prefer to *know* *all* the pieces.
