I'm NOT pimping for Burzynski. My entire point was regarding the FDA and big pharma, which I believe was the point of the OP.

As for the scienceblog article, it's a poorly written movie review (though there are better articles available which discredit Burzynski with better data).

IMO, one can discredit Burzynski and still shake one's head over the actions that took place between Elan, the NIH, and the FDA. If people are interested, they can make up their own minds.
