Hi Gale,

in general Europeans are great in basic research. I have seen it so many

times that ideas initially came up here, but then we weren't able to bring

the idea to the market and the US boys had to take over. One good example is

Zithromax. Japanese and Italian researchers found it to be helpful for pwcf

ten years ago. But it wasn't until the CFF sponsored a randomized study that

we got clear results.

Let's see what will come from stem cell research, it's still a long way to

go.

Peace
