Harry, true. Or, a more crude metaphor might be Mark's emails and their saltatory effect remind one of that great Russian Pavlov and his band of canines. Positive email leads to salivation as positive response what is a simple bell. This whole thing is like a round-the-world race with lots of blowouts, wrecks, and a few great open stretches. In the end, it only matters how you cross the line.

Sometimes, also, lack of stimulation leads me to create paranoid delusions with Varney and Stoll slumped down in their office, tears in eyes, the blinds blocking out the bright California light, scanning some assorted toxicology report or death letter from the FDA. It may be irrational and paranoid on my part, but Mark's rational reply at least argues against the 'WACO scenario' where the FDA firebombs the Cortex headquarters or commits some regulatory Jihad against ampakines in general.

Sometimes, no news is good news.

Neuro - I agree 100% and this is something I very much appreciate about Cortex - I hope many others here do as well.

The fact that MV and RS take the time to respond personally, when most every company I know would have their PR firm have an intern send a boilerplate 'Thank you for your inquiry' email', is an underappreciated courtesy.

Being the sympathizer you are, I know you would like to believe that they are "underappreciated." It seems more likely that your remark is nothing more than a red-herring. It's equivalent to focusing on/debating the quality of penmanship in a newly discovered confession letter, for which the prosecution has a weak case against the suspect.
