Steve, No guarantees the questions will be accepted let alone answered. Will you join me? Or call in and ask: What percentage of the Prostate Cancer Foundation’s research budget goes for active surveillance and localized prostate cancer? Why should someone on active surveillance donate to PCF? Or why not write to Ryan at Cryan@pcf.org. He usually answers me when I write. But I can never get an answer to those questions.

Again, Howard, you're right on! How IS the money to be spent going forward? Why is the PCF role a mystery to support groups alike? As an aside, the 22nd, emphasis 22nd, annual all-day tele-conference in October on this subject which normally includes Oregon Health Science University, University of British Columbia and University of Washington, this year will not include the latter.

Hats off to this opportunity to grill Dr. Ryan. However, first question of him should be why he is not more public before those he espouses to serve. Paying to hear garble will need happen!
