"The FDA - using lots of your money to protect you from Dean Kamen's inventions while overlooking quackery daily." Every day we see that regulation doesn't work, yet we keep making excuses for it or keeping quiet lest someone realize that the only reason that society works at all is because most of us have figured out how to circumvent it. Would that physicians could make as many excuses as the government, there wouldn't be any such thing as malpractice, much less a crisis. |

Please don't write this about FDA in relation to Dean Kamen and his inventions; right now they are in the process of evaluating iBOT in a fair, although lengthy procedure and it will probably be approved very soon. Clearly many of his earlier inventions got appropriate approval; cosider the heart stent for example, which got implanted even into the heart of the Vice President.
Nobody ever asked for approval of Segway as a medical assistive device - any info would be appreciated if you have heard otherwise. Quote:

Think again about what you just said - essentially, criticizing the government is dangerous. O tempora, o mores. |
