You do not have to be sure of your final goal to be sure of an intermediate step.

As discussed many times (again, you really do need to real "all the words", Eddie) SIAL includes a test kit with all sets of zinc fingers (which can be confirmed by a visit to their website
http://www.sigmaaldrich.com/life-science.html
that can be used to test not only that the genetic modifications have been made, but also that they were inserted *into*the*correct*site* and within 48 hours of completing the insertions.

That is about as sure as you can get. The successful insertion is a highly significant step and important news on its own that fully merits a PR.

Since when do companies only release PRs when they have reached their final objective?

As for you "not being able to rely on what he [Kim] says" I would submit that is probably a direct consequence of your not wanting to "read all the words" and therefore having expectations that simply don't fit with what was actually said. Without getting all the relevant details it is very easy to make false deductions or assumptions leading to unrealistic expectations as to how events can or may unfold.

So, since YOU brought it up, how about a few examples of the "9 or of 10 times" when you were "not able to rely on something he said"

From what I've seen everything he's said has been highly accurate.

Kim is not responsible for faulty deductions that you may make, just for what he actually says, OK?

So put up or shut up.
