Paulness, The new DNA wasn't even announced in 2003, so that had nothing to do with their failure to meet the IND predicted dates. It may have held up the one for Dec. 2005 but not the ones for 2003 or 2004.
I think it is you that refuse to listen to any reasoning. CYGX gave those dates, not us!!!!!!!! We heard all MS's interviews and while some were interesting and hopeful, none has come to fruition to date.
