[Guest guest]

Hi ,

We heard from Dr.Zuckerman that you provided some excellent testimony

at the FDA meeting on breast implants yesterday--tell us about it!

How did it go? I am anxious to hear your side of it!

have so many speakers that have requested time that I can only put

you down for 5 minutes. If you can't make it we will simply go on to

the next speaker. This way a spot will be reserved for you if you

can come. Remember, the open speaking period is from 8:30 to 10:30

am on Tuesday July 9. I will place you near the end of the speakers.
