Dear Mr. Hassan -- "Those lights, down-tunnel from you -- are, actually. . . the headlights of an ONCOMING train."


Clearly Mr. Hassan's 50/50 partner in the Cholesterol Joint
Venture knows what "an oncoming train" looks like -- and knows
how to collaborate, to avoid being "legislated upon",
relative to payment disclosures. See below -- a very fine
letter -- and, as ever, click it to enlarge, and read. [After-
all, even Rupert Murdoch (the Fox News owner & conservative
media mega-magnate) is being quoted today -- saying Sen. Obama
will take the White House in a "land-slide" this fall.
So, "Wake up, Mr. Hassan -- it is the train that moves,
not the station -- time to change your approach, here
!"]

But where is the Schering version?

You'll need to click the link, above,or the tiny-little
one at left -- that tiny one, yeah -- to see the "kiss-
off letter
" Schering-Plough earlier chose to
send out (from a lawyer, no less), bucking
the Medtronic, Merck, Astra-Zeneca, AvaMed and the PhRMA
(a pharma industry association) trend-line, here.

Is that wise? You decide.



Smart, very smart, that one -- Clark, is.
