I hope you right Flip. Before I got involved with NWBO and DCVAX I could never have imagined how rigged the game is. Somehow in the back of my mind if the results clearly demonstrate the DCVAX is a cure for GBM, at least most forms of it, that it will get twisted and portrayed as something dire. Hopefully we will find out soon. Hope I am wrong but my guess is it probably will not be until January. Federal employees are probably already heading out for Christmas holiday and I am sure that is even more the case in Europe. Once December 1st hits they are all on holiday until mid-January at least.

You hit my pet peeve with this common mispelling: it's shoo in (like shoo fly pie). Meaning you just need to wave your hand and say 'shoo' to get somebody in (and not that you have to kick them with you shoe).

This:

The conventional spelling of the noun meaning a sure winner is shoo-in, not shoe-in. The term uses the verb shoo, which means to urge something in a desired direction, usually by waving one’s arms. The idea behind the word is that the person being shooed—for example, into the winner’s circle, into a job, or into a field of award nominees—is such a lock that we can shoo him or her in without hesitation.
