must have been a liberal.
Hey, the supermarket rags do it all the time. They take a story which might have a grain of truth, and blow it way out of proportion. The silly thing is that there are fools who believe this crap.

I list SIX with easily obtainable phone numbers.
Could someone please help this illiterate with reading comprehension --- thank you!!!
Geez, Louise. You state that a simple search will show that Mr Pierce had AIDS. That doesn't seem to be the case, so instead of digging a deeper hole of incredibility by calling other people names, why not just admit you have no source?
J-B
You and your illiterate cohort here would like to think so, maybe think again.
I work for one of the pharmaceutical companies that makes some drugs related to some illnesses from which this man died. There's been a lot of trouble about our drug pricing so I called our rep at KCMO and told him to look into it. He called back with the info after speaking to some doctors.
YOU and that OTHER clown here have NO excuse for NOT making those calls IF you really WERE interested which you're obviously NOT.
Don't bother me with your dumb commentaries again I'm not going to answer you.
lrh : i can't quite understand your reluctance to give a 'link' to your source.
we do it all the time here on a2k .
i will quite often not insert a whole story but give a link, so that anyone interested can look it up. it's a very simply and time-saving process.
i would never dream of using the phone to chase down a story. i'm not a reporter and just want to talk with other a2k members by way of the internet.
i certainly don't want to offend you, just looking for better communication. hbg
Louise Heller doesn't seem to worry about offense, and may suffer from high self esteem getting in her way of apprehending others' abilities.
I am open to reading data one way or another on this issue re the insurance.
In any case, neither J_B nor Phoenix are illiterate, and have seemed to me quite temperate in replies to insults.
Ah, just as I thought, hearsay and rumor.
Osso- People with high self esteem do not react to reasonable questions by hurling insults. It is only people with LOW self esteem, who get satisfaction from putting people down, so that they can feel in the superior position.
Louise- I have nothing more to say to you......ever. Please go find yourself some literate people with whom you can interact..................if they will put up with your nonsense.
I'll back off to say I have no clue of L.H.'s selfesteem, nor is it my business.
But, damn, she's wrong on her targets' abilities.
Even if we assume this information is true, aren't there confidentiality issues involved in a pharmaceutical company employee revealing info about a patient that was obtained on the job?
Yeah, I was wondering if Louise might worry about libel issues. I hope for her sake she's using an alias. I'm not a lawyer, but I'd be mighty angry if I were a family member. Posting his picture and claiming he has AIDS when there is no documented evidence is over the line.
Well I don't know where any of this speculation came from.
For starters a true statement can never constitute libel.
Second only the living can allege libel (if the statement about them was false, see above!) and the man died.
Third the only person I named illiterate here is the one who tried to ask "whom to call in KC" when I had given 6 people or organizations with perfectly good phone numbers.
Fourth if any psychobabbler here thinks that the AIDS status of a dead man could possibly affect my own self-esteem, please post the nature of the alleged effect.
Fifth pharmaceutical companies are bound by no confidentiality laws except in reporting test results to the FDA where names of study participants must be omitted, not exactly the case here.
