BB,
Agreed. Furthermore, it would be most credible if this comes from the likes of LL, KA, or other KOLs from the field who attended NYAS (including their steering committee and SAB). I think everyone (including NWBO management) is waiting for the publication to come out before they launch a series of offensive against some of these folks including AF, Midwestern Hedgie, etc for their involvement.
On a related note, I can tell you from my own personal experience that the community will come together as long as the data is solid! And they would want the publication to confirm this. From what we saw at NYAS, this appears to be a slam dunk! This is an unmet clinical need so there is no doubt in my mind that all 4 RAs will approve this.
