If it was the Charlie Rose Neck Veins series, I'd be all there.

For a minute I thought it was the infamous Dr. Rose Cardiologist.

I don't understand. You're saying you're not all there?

I watched the first half hour and managed to fall asleep as my blood bolied. I sure hope my veins are still opened!

It felt like a PBS version of a Biogen infomercial.....validated by the addition of the academics.

I kind of figured, when I saw who was on the panel. I don't expect Charlie Rose will have anybody in the CCSVI camp. I don't think he can see through these guys, and everybody wants a good-news story. If I heard anti-lingo was going to do anything for PPMS or SPMS (both progressive, both devoid of remissions, maybe different only because some people get remissions earlier on - luck of the draw?) I would sit up and take notice. As it was, I fell asleep.

My husband's friend told him it had just come on and he turned the channel 15 minutes into the show. I didn't know who was on it until they spoke. I did like seeing Hauser because now there's a face with the name, but I felt like he was performing and was insincere
