g$: "I have always said that the lack of trust in Dr. B will be a consistent black cloud"

Yes, you and others have said that, but I have never seen one iota of evidence to
support the notion.

And, if we stipulate that Dr.Berger did not inspire trust (which I do not accept),
in the past, his (Ariad's) performance in the last couple of years should pretty
much wash the away that issue. After all, he always promised a standalone, global oncology
business, and guess what, we're almost there, and moving toward that goal
very rapidly (eu.approval imminent, significant financial reserves, two
blockbuster drugs in the bag).

Yes, I would like to see greater, immediate market recognition, but it
will come (I still predict before the EOY 13).
