Excuse me??? Have I missed something? Settling cases my butt!!! I don't call a hand full of cases "settling cases" J&J are only settling cases that are actually going to trial so they don't have to pay what should be paid out!!! Also trying to get by until this flippen "pre-emption" gets past!

I totally get you. but my question is for everyone. do your lawyers know that you talk about this stuff on line? i have given my deposition already and they drill you on this stuff. i'm not saying it's bad cause we need each other but they will try and use it agaisnt you. just be careful. ths is the reason why i haven't been able to talk to anyone, i am afraid it will kick me in the butt later on.

This was on a separate post....the Public Citizen, an independent advocacy group, has issued a press release regarding their request to the FDA to recall the Patch. The press release, including the petition, is at this link: http://www.citizen.org/

Sounds like a hopeful initiative from a non-biased group. They do not accept corporate funding, advertising, or government funding.
