It was reported here that American Home Products had acquired Solgar,
the herbs/supplements maker. Can anyone supply me with a citation on
that?
Also, here is a press release on AHP's acquisition of PharmaPrint,
dated 10 October 97:
http://www.pharmaprint.com/101097.htm
"PharmaPrint Inc. is the only developer and manufacturer of patented
pharmaceuticals derived from herbal products. Management expects to
introduce a succession of new pharmaceuticals originating from widely
demanded, but scientifically untested and unregulated herbal
products."
In other words, the value-added element is labs and patents. Sounds
like Code to me....
Oh, don't get me started. I'll post later on epistemology of science
stuff that's burbling around in my sub-basement. Including the New
Physics stuff that relates to sustainable ag. I'm still miffed at
Dale for dismissing Heisenberg, Schrodinger, Feynmann, Bohr, Planck,
and Einstein as "new age scientists" and am busy womanning the
torpedoes against such Dark-Age resistance to ongoing inquiry into
the way things work. :^) Hey, I'll even get to use the word
Weltanschauung here. I did a couple weeks ago, drafting a response to
the homeopathy piece...but decided not to send it. :^D
peace, really
