Colchicine's been around for a bit, and a number of labs have been working on ways to modify its structure to make it less toxic to normal cells, but easily activated once it gets to where it's needed. The Bradford story, based around a paper that came out last year, seems to have hit the headlines again more because of the BA meeting and the uni's press office than bcause there've been any further advances.

The paper's abstract: http://cancerres.aacrjournals.org/content/70/17/6902.abstract

Re: echofi - it looks like it's doing the same thing as spotibot.com , but with fewer options...

sell CD's at £3-5 new and I'll buy loads of them.

insist on pricing them at £10+ and I won't. Nor will anyone else.

I'm aware that HMV et al don't have that much control over pricing, but they sure as hell should argue with those that do. Or they die. [of course I'm assuming that they do, and just don't get anywhere]

incidentally, I buy from HogsHead regularly.

It's surely only a matter of time until HMV disappears form the high-street. WH Smith is another shop I doubt will be around much longer (except for probably the overpriced ones in train stations).

Aw crap. Billy are already way too deep as it is if you want bookcases for paperbacks. I really don't know where I can find properly proportioned bookcases that are also tall enough and don't cost a bomb.

Funnily enough, my calendar has a photo of those living bridges for this month, marvellous things.

I have bought a CD in HMV this year!

That said, it was something in the charts that was getting a lot of hype, so I expected them to stock it.
