Thanks, Bert. I so noted because I know the hospital might make its case. I am done with that. The discoverer of PSA is not on the agenda here. But the use and abuse of PSA is. Howard

With respect to whom discovered the PSA - we should be able to find the original papers submitted by each group and also determine what molecule each is describing/claiming. Even hallowed institutions have been known to fabricate details. Here's another viewpoint:

Anthony Horan also mentions Michael Korda in his book, The Rise and Fall of the Prostate Cancer Scam, chapter 13 headlined - Humanists report on their experience with prostate cancer. Here Dr Horan mentions the prostate cancer support group and "the persistent undercurrent of bitterness....." Also, if Mr. Korda was treated for the Gleason 6 disease then he is a survivor of the debilitating, scientifically unproven radical prostatectomy "treatment" and not the bogus cancer.
