Ian,

Sorry that you're leaving us Harry, but I'm sure it's for the best. I've found your comments about "big pharma" repetitive and you've given very little to this site in the last 18 months or so. :o


Sorry to disappoint you again Ian...although that isn't too difficult to do these days....but your quote isn't what I said despite your wishful thinking :wink:

Quote:
Sorry you feel that way Harry. I think everyone should be able to contribute and their views / comments should be respected.


It would help if you attributed the right quotes to the right people!

Quote:
No hard feelings Harry, I'll miss your interesting insights about Biogen and Tysabri. But if you've decided to quit this site then I respect your decision and wish you all the best. :)


Don't you wish I would but it isn't going to happen...but I suppose that there is the chance you will ban me again. :)

Harry

Harry--I think I am a much bigger pharma cynic than you! I think someone should take Biogen and hang them by their testicles!! Well actually, not Biogen but the research company from out of the US they partner with so this company can get OUR tax dollars to do Biogen's research! (Cynical enough for ya'?)

You wouldn't REALLY dare leave, would you? Remember my daughter is the one on the alternative treatment--the one no one here believes in or are interested in--and that is fine--really! Even though she is doing FANTASTIC--so far!!! (Being treated for strep bacteria/fungal infections but not the Weldon protocol.)

Keep on keeping on Harry! I'm with you every step of the way--Chris

Hi Harry,
Good diffusion of the situation.

This has proved my suspicions, that Campath is really a refinement of the drug which prompted the book "Flowers for Algernon" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flowers_for_Algernon and at this point, although Ian seems to have lost the use of his "people skills" his intelligence far surpasses that of normal mortals and is increasing expotentially.

Harry, I suspect Ian's intent was to use you as a pawn to bring robbie out of hiding.

If Ian succeeds in this there will be no containing his superiority complex......drat, I just noticed robbie's earlier response.

Pandora's box has been opened!

Bob

I'm waving the white flag and conceding immediately to second place behind you in the dislike for MS "big pharma". :wink:

Of course I wouldn't leave....my comment about room for two big pharma cynics on this forum was said with a big tongue in a big cheek :)

Yeah, kind of perplexing isn't it but if you consider the history and the source of the comments it becomes easier to understand :)

Harry,

You know I love you really.

If I was asked who I'd rather be stuck with in a two man submarine at the bottom of the sea - you or Chris55 - you would come out top everytime. :D

Big mistake, Ian, big mistake! I am the ultimate "Mother Superior" and God graced us with the ability to NEVER hurt our children.

Ian,

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, RE-READ THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL TO SEE IF THERE IS ANY WAY TO RUN THAT THING SOLO!! 8O

If you're really in a pinch I could lend you my old boxer-dog. He farts a lot but other than that he's pretty quiet :lol:

Well Bob! I definitely think Harry and you are most appropriate for a two "MAN" submarine. Interesting that you are impressed that Harry would come out "on top" everytime.

Wheee--sounds like fun!!!

I never should have said that it would ruin my fun if I had to explain it to you because I think there is a good chance that you are pretending not to understand just to ruin my joke!

Now that I have to explain it I find that it's just too darned complicated :cry:

Sorry Bob--you must explain the "joke". If we can solve a mystery on this site, then we simply MUST!

Aw, looking back on it, I guess it wasn't that funny. That's what I get for writing these things late at night! Oh well, if we're going to solve a mystery, let it be a BIG one!
