I think the BWG phase 3 should settle this once and for all, whats others opinon on that, is there any possiblitie that wont be the case for any reason ? Its is disheartening for sure, i hope Frank turns out to be right about the 100 failed studys. Whatever way you look at it, each negative study be it a WPI replication or not, is convincing the scientific world this is a bogus topic. unless something good happens soon i can only see things getting worse. if phase 3 goes against the wpi, then i think they will be dead in the water. unless of course Lipkin finds it. but why do i feel so strongly that he will not. Maybe the pattern just looks too set to belive he actualy might. and where the Hell has Ila Sing gone, shouldnt we be hearing something from her by now. Its as if shes dropped of the xmrv map, not a peep, not a comment nothing about deveploments of late. or how her studys are going or likely to be releasing results, why do i get the feeling, shes being quite for a reason ? like possibly things have not gone her way, and doesnt as yet want to upset the apple cart any further, for those who feel they can still prove there point. if ever we have needed a good strong positive study from a group not connected to the wpi, we surely need it now. If something goes wrong with the xmrv evidence, i will feel quite frankly lost on many levels. Maybe wrongly i have put too much faith in the xmrv idea, mainly because it just seemmed to fit my life so well. Of course its not over untill the fat lady sings. but all we keep hearing is a deafening silence. I know one thing ive said it before, and ill say it again. even if Judy is wrong, i still support her, at least she tried her hardest, to actually get to the bottom of this horrid disease, and least she stood up for us in belief. and at least just like Annette she actually seemed to give a damm about the patients. thats so much more than what most were willing to give us. But if it doesnt work out, i think everyone ( to my friends and family ) is once again going to look foolish. the damage will be immense. my self asteem ( and others here too ) will likely sink to new levels. For once cant something just go right for all of us, for our bodys and minds, and especially for our pride, just for once. to help right the wrongs of a injust health system the world over, havent we suffered enough. If god exists what more does he want from us. its just not fair. it just isnt. Untill such day as all crumbles to hell. I still support judy. But lately its getting very worrying to say the least.
