I too read this article. First I wondered why I had even had taxol.....then the more I read....I think this article was not detailed enough to be convincing. Not knowing much about the symposium, I decided to try and read what was coming out of the symposium. My first impression is that the news coverage is "topical." I have to say I would expect better explanations if they are talking to "us." Still trying to educate myself, but feeling a bit frustrated. Who do we believe?
