It's easy to imagine mass cover ups when you refere to the pharamceutical/medical industries as "they", it's not so easy when you realize that there's several companies, tens of thousands of researchers, and they all hold individual thoughts. You can't very shut up each and every one of the people researching this stuff for love of dear profit, somebody is going to flip them the bird and bring that cure to the first company, hell even the first herbalist, who realises they could make a huge profit with a monopoly on the cure for cancer. You simply can't shut them all up. Heck, the DEA still can't shut up Alexander Shulgin!
Indeed this is true, I was once one of "them" working as a Medical Microbiologist for a diagnostic company....

For a little bit I even did a stint at Porton Down and CAMR :wtf:

Silence - maybe not, but re-direction! Be sure

This thread does have the air of paranoid conspiracy though - see what you mean, I didn't quite mean my post to be so "Stick it to the Man"

Oh, and cancer sucks.
