I must apologize for taking up space on this site last week. I posted a newspaper article about research into pain using something called ABT-594, made from the poison of an Ecuadorian frog. I called the doctor's office that was given in the newpaper and only got an answering machine. You know the kind with the "press 1 if you want blah, blah, press 2 if you want more crap. I pressed all the buttons and only got more "press 1, press 2 messages. Never did get to speak to a real person. Guess I was just a little naive to believe something in a newspaper could actually be true. This study, in my opinion, is a scam. Probably just some quack doctor, a self-titled scientific researcher, ripping off the taxpayer for grants and handouts because he can't make it as a legitimate physician.
