My rant for the day...
This thread will get derailed extremely quickly.

The conspiracy theorists' argument that big business/pharma is suppressing cures for diseases, particularly cancer, is so contradictory. Look at it from the point of view that there is more money to be made from the cure than what is being put into research. Take it a step further and there is also a lot at stake for the individual labs/researchers. Wouldn't you love to have your name associated with the "cure"? Sometimes, people need to step away from the tin foil.

My brother is a Yale professor/researcher in the cancer field, and I can assure you that there is no suppression of the cure.
