Yet another screaming British headline about a “cure.” If the headlines are this sensational about a “maybe” cure, image what they would be about a “real” cure.

But think about it; when is the last time you saw such a headline? People have been running for the cure, walking for the cure, dancing for the cure for 50 years (check out muscular distrophy) and yet those headlines announcing a real cure just don’t exist.

I wonder why.

Because people have become pie-in-the-sky optimistic. I mean, look at the hooplah over stupid wind turbines and solar. Suddenly we act like it’s all realistic.

That doesn’t mean there ISN’T a cure - just that it’s not that easy. And may find out there is not at all.

I really don’t like the “walks”, “runs” and all that nonsense. What the hell is the point? How do you raise money by running more than simply asking? “Raising awareness”? I’m up to my ears in “awareness” of all the damn pet issues. I really don’t need traffic jams to help me know autism exists or cancer is tough to cure.

(off soapbox now)
