Greetings from K-F.
I too watched the program and I thought it was good but not great. As for
your reaction, I think You assume that a complete understanding of how
things work is needed to affect a cure.That really is not necessary. If you
consider just about any successful medical procedure our understanding of
the "cure" is usually incomplete. Do we know in detail what causes cancer?
No, but we can slow down or arrest many cancers just the same. Sometimes
medications are effective but it is not known why. So like in many other
diseases I think there is some hope of improving things dramatically, but
probably not completely or without some unpleasant side effects. I think
that provides actually a quite nice glimmer of hope.

Yes, Jim, it was great. However, I"m a little depressed - how are they
ever
going to figure us out? The brain is so magnificent and complex, but if
something goes wrong - disaster. Looking forward to next segments.
