Mav, I have stopped believing that despite the silence everything behind the scenes is moving in the right direction and at an appropriate pace. I am no longer convinced. It may be, but past history tells me that it may not.
I totally agree with you that the lack of industry experience at NWBO is either a sign of incompetence or evidence that a deal is already in the works. I am just not convinced about either option. LL and KA keep me motivated and have continued strong support for DCVax. I do not extend this to support for management. The opposite actually, I believe that I have sensed frustration from LL. Initially, I chalked that up to the fact that practicing physicians really have no idea how much effort and resource goes into drug development, approval, and market, and almost universally discount the value that industry brings. I also find medicines’ ethics with regards to business practices to quite often be incredibly simplistic and often very, very, very, very, very hypocritical. (I think that gets my point across, but if the physicians on this board are offended I will be happy to rattle of a litany of examples). I am a firm believer in the value of medicine as is most all of industry, but just wish medicine recognized the reverse and realized that we are allies not adversaries. So I generally don’t pay any attention to this type of frustration and/or judgement.
LL, however, strikes me as very knowledgeable about business, RA and industry as well as ethical to the highest degree. I think that if SNO comes and goes without TLD, we may see her get quite vocal with criticism.
