I am quite serious. A little loopy from the day's Ldopa perhaps, but serious none-the-less. From the moment that Dr. Bruce Ames, a very respected researcher, and team announced this things have been very unusual. Downright odd, in fact. Google it and see what I mean. A bright spark lasting just a few days, followed by silence. Nothing for three or four years. Then suddenly this pops up. And, as best I can tell, they aren't asking for money, either.

Also, it seems to me that they went from the weird discovery stage to advanced clinical trials awfully darned quick. But how do you do that and why? One possible answer is to go after some closely related disease that is wide open because nobody has it so there is little competition. Get your patents and approvals. Put it on the pharmacy shelf and bring up the off-label possibilities.
