text: I think it wise by any one who follows this story not to believe a word of what 
  anyone on the Steering committee says.  If nine out of how many???? had con-
  flicts of interests, why not look to a wider group of professionals. Did they even 
  get a quorum for the vote with so many abstainers?  Does this speak to the fact
  that probably 1 out of 2 doctors take money from drug companies, or worse?  
  This is like the police policing itself, the army having its own judicial system, the 
  Catholic church punishing its own predators.
