Well, you better screw it back on quick!
Much appreciated, Flipper.

"Hoofy"??? You've well and truly lost your marbles.
Talking to yourself again!! You're working too hard - go and lie down in a darkened room for the next 19 months.
First a pathetic attempt at a sexual slur,
Hi Doc, I'm somewhat surprised that you haven't come across the word before. "The final furlong" comes from horse racing where in the UK (and I would have thought the US) the length of the race is measured in miles and furlongs - eg the Grand National (a steeple chase) is 4 miles and 2 furlongs long. The most exciting point in any race is the final sprint to the finishing line - the final furlong - when the radio commentator's voice gradually gets higher and higher as he describes the neck and neck tussle as to which horse is going to pip the other at the post!
Except, in DCVax's race there is no competition - it is a "1-horse race".
Hoffie, You know, and I know, and most of the people on this board know that Ex and his ilk all know that what they are repetitively spouting is not the truth. We all know that there is no way that anybody (except their paymaster) is going to get them to deviate from their constant lying.
Their only purpose is to dissuade naive investors from purchasing shares in the Company since anybody already invested is hardly going to sell their shares just when DCVax-L is entering the final furlong of its trial.
The only purpose of taking them to task is to expose their mendacity to the naive investor and that is something I commend.
No, We didn't misunderstand what you wrote because what you wrote was quite clearly written. What is happening now is that you are now trying to dig yourself out of the hole that you've mistakenly dug for yourself and only sinking deeper into your own self-produced ordure.
Wow! I'm gobsmacked at the breadth of your knowledge of Shakespeare!
Ken Griffin and other "New Masters of the Universe" (as the headline described them) had a 2-page spread in the Sunday Times (of London) this weekend. The sub-heading was "Multi-strategy funds led by the likes of Israel Englander and Ken Griffin are making astonishing returns by splitting traders into pods, each pursuing different objectives".
Apart from the revelation that last year Citadel made $16 billion for its investors - a return of 38.1% and the biggest annual gain in hedge-fund history, the bit that caught my eye was the revelation that at Citadel there
Thanks, Hyperopia. That'll do for me for in my "discussions".

Mani, I don't know whether you are right or wrong! What you are saying suggests to me that a large amount of money has been invested in NWBO by the likes of shareholders and by big commercial lenders. Over the same time only a very small amount of cash has been received into NWBO's coffers from sales of its products etc. and the share price of the Company has stayed low, albeit rising slowly.
This has left a large deficit (the $1.3billion) between the money invested into NWBO and the current value of the Company. The value of the company is comprised of such things as tangible assets (eg buildings, equipment, manufactured product, cash in the bank) and intangibles (eg intellectual property, the notional value of the Company as reflected in its share price). That deficit should start to drop as the value of the company rises after DCVax-L has been licenced, the rise in value being due to a swelling revenue stream filling the coffers with money and this will be reflected by an increase in the share price. (Some of the increase in the share price will be speculative - that NWBO will continue to increase in value thereby raising its current value on the premise that its future value will be even greater.)
To me that suggests that the $1.3billion is a relatively small underestimate of how much has been spent on developing the DCVax products because some revenue has been received over the last year or two and this would reduce the deficit very slightly. However, I think that one could say quite truthfully that the cost of developing DCVax over the last 15 years or so will be slightly more than $1.3 billion
Thanks for the info, Hyperopia.
I understand "deficit" to mean "the excess of expenditure or liabilities over income or assets accrued over a given period". So, for absolute certainty does the $1.3 billion represent only the outstanding expenses for which the providers still need to be paid or is it the total cost incurred so far, with some expenses having been paid and the rest still owing?
Many thanks for any clarification you can provide.
Best wishes,
DocLee
"How much has DCVax development cost so far?"
I do not know whether this is possible, but can anybody on this board provide me with a rough (even very rough) estimate with a factual basis of how much NWBO's total spend on the development of DCVax has been from when it acquired the rights from UCLA to the present day? I am currently in a somewhat heated debate over the cost of chemotherapy in general and in the current "compassionate" cost of treatment with DCVax-L. I would like to introduce some hardish facts with which I can back up a refutation of corporate greed being made on the basis of the cost of treatment for "compassionate use" and backed up with nebulous assertions.
I am directing the same question to NWBO but I am not at all confident of being given any information which might be considered commercially sensitive and therefore confidential. I rather think that I may get a quicker (but rougher) estimate from this board than from NWBO (if at all).
Can't be the Blackpool that I know - it has a Tower over 500ft high built in the 1890s complete with a Ballroom and Aquarium, a zoo (in which a lion called Wallace once ate young Albert), a Pleasure Beach with 8 roller coasters including the UK's highest and 3 piers! What more could you want!!
"The leopard doesn't change his spots" and "Beware the Greeks bearing gifts" spring to mind.
Congratulations, Extremist. You've won "Punster of the Year".
Idiotic response.
Absolutely correct.
This is not a game, you unbelievable dunderhead.
".... what should be equal fun for both the pumpers and the skeptics".
Wot a load of desperate rubbish you spout (again and again and again).
Potentially bad news for the UK! Ken Griffin is attempting to join the ranks of previous rogues who owned UK newspapers for their own benefit (Capt. Robert "Bob" Maxwell [the Mirror Group] and Conrad Black [the Daily Telegraph]) (source: Private Eye 3/11/2023).
I just wonder if he can feel the net tightening around him in the U.S. as the SEC and the Feds become increasingly aware of the felonies committed by Citadel and which must have been approved by him whilst CEO. Is he now trying to branch out into another jurisdiction, preparing the ground for a bolt-hole for use if the need arises? Ownership of the right wing Daily Telegraph will enable him to move its politics even further to the right, espousing policies which favour him and his ilk to the detriment of the majority.
Flipper, As you so clearly feel that NICE is wrong with their recommendation, perhaps you should enquire of them "Why?"
Of course, as you do not have any, you cannot reveal any.
A rather hackneyed cop out on your part.
Gus, If enough of the mesothelioma could be removed there is no theoretical reason why a vaccine could not be produced for your friend. Might I suggest that you contact Dave Innes for advice from the horse's mouth. His email is " dinnes@nwbio.com ".
Good luck to your friend.
iclight. Uclight in the tunnel, but it is not the light of a trainwreck in flames that you think (and gleefully hope) urcing but its the NWBO locomotive ponderously approaching u as it nears the end of its long and successful journey to the MHRA and LICENCING.
Interestingly the commentary is voiced by a Brit even though the video is produced in the USA ("tumor" not "tumour"). Can it be that just as Brits make the best villains in films (eg Alan Rickman as Hans Gruber in "Diehard"), they are perceived as more trustworthy when promoting something?
This is why he and his company must be taken to court, either by NWBO or the Fiduciary Authorities, to show to his Floridian neighbours and the world at large just what a dishonest and venal individual he is. His reputation must be trashed.
Wannabe - you ask "How hard is it to import frozen material?". The answer is clearly "Harder than you think".
So, Maverick, if your confident statement of future fact isn't precognition, its the second - "... your willfully biased assessment to bolster your own personal beliefs and/or investment strategy?"
Am I right or am I right?
Thanks, Hoff; I was thinking of opening a book on whether Mavericks statement was precognition or self-serving FUD but quickly realised that the odds of it being the first were longer than the possibility of the tinfoil helmet curing GBM.
Maverick, "Nothing will happen in November and more excuses will be delivered in December again. Another lost year with false promises by management."
Is this precognition or just your wilfully biased assessment to bolster your own personal beliefs and/or investment strategy?
I think that we should be told!
Don't be childish and ridiculous!
