Cancer is a disease that has many forms, so to cure it you need a different "anti-agent" as you call it for each form. Some cancers are age-related, others are not, each occurs via a different pathway. I totally doubt that one magic bullet will cure all cancers. That is why despite many millions of dollars/pounds being funneled into cancer research each year there has been no "cure" for cancer. Indeed you could argue that this money might be better spent researching diseases we know might give a better "return" but are sidelined for the more politically correct diseases such as cancer. Sorry to be cynical but that's the way it is.

Hi Just wanted to check in since I've been so bloody busy over the last few months that I have'nt posted for what seems like decades. How is everyone? By the way...since I couldn't access the chat thing I just decided to do this post instead? How is Blike? How is Fafalone? How is YT? How is anyone I used to know? Does anyone even remember me?

personally....I'd talk to a friendly Bedouin or Tuareg tribesman...if anybody knows the lowdown on desert life it'd be them.

OK...tried to read the links...and they lead me straight back to the links in a somewhat roundabout route.....why don't you just summarise the (horrible phrase) "take home message"......I'm waiting.

Coquina I don't know Kilbride church but that's just probably because I was a kid....I was born in Bridge of Allan, we moved from the area, then moved back for 2 years when I was 11 years old before moving on again (as a county policeman my Dad got moved around a great deal). What I will say is this...the tall monument you heard of may well be the Wallace monument ...dedicated to William Wallace...aka Braveheart who fought the English at the end of the 13th century and who the Mel Gibson film "Braveheart" is about. He was quite a character and what amuses us here in Scotland is the fact that a 6' 4" character (see his broadsword on display in the monument) was played by Gibson who is all of 5' 9". That said, the film does stir the blood somewhat....I too hope you get to come over here one day. But....if I find the time one day I may very well try to locate Kilbride church and see if I can find any Locketts...??

Just had to reply to this...I was born in what is technically Bridge of Allan which is a little town just outside Stirling in Scotland. I also lived just up the road for 3 years in Dunblane (where the awful tragedy took place) when I was just 9-12 years old. Bridge of Allan used to have the most excellent cafe that sold the best ice-cream ever (true old secret Italian recipe)...don't know if it's still there. And Stirling University is really more in Bridge of Allan than Stirling in my humble opinion. As to my parents.....they are just great, Dad's a retired policeman and Mum is a real housewife/mum. Even though we are all grown up intelligent people we still value their advice because they just know what makes each and every one of us tick.

Hi Jonas...this link will give you a better forum to answer your question.....http://micro.nwfsc.noaa.gov/forums/..I don't know enough about protein chemistry to answer but if it was DNA, PCR, RNA, etc. I'd be right in there...good luck and that really is an excellent site

eh Lance???....what??....is there some subscription there or something that I don't know about??......if so I'm sorry....I just thought it was a link.

Oh...sorry Cap'n Refsmatt...I don't know how to get round that for you...but I would if I could, really.

OK....that was sarcastic...I apologise...but where are you publishing this?

OK...I did a little tiny bit of neurobiology and I'm by no means an expert but I rather think the brain of a person (i.e. Homo sapiens) is vastly complicated....I look forward to you publications in peer reviewed journals...when might they appear?
