Just mulling this over....so when the company says "it has intiated clinical trials", that doesn't neccessarily mean they've even set out the protocol yet for how the trial they've intitiated will run, but they can still say it has been initiated.  

"We don't know how its going to be initiated, but rest assured it has been initiated".  Man is science ever neat.

Check....

Now I'm just wondering about when the company announces other things using the past tense.  An example might be the 4th DSMB reccomendation they just received.  The PR said:

A data review by the independent Data Safety Monitoring Board resulted in a recommendation for the BETonMACE trial to continue as planned without any modification.

It "resulted"....but when something resulted, in this sciene speak....does that mean it actually happened....or is it planned to happen maybe?  Chill....I am fully aware that I am being obtuse, (rounded at the free end iow).  I just hate lawyer speak, plain simple and easily understood language is what I like.  

But I guess with Resverlogix we need to parse every phrase.
