Google it- lots of sensational press, though the proposition relies on a monumental conspiracy that seems absurd once you dissect it. More recently another professor says doctors are heartless for voting this week via the BMA that assisted suicide is "morally repugnant". Presumably doctors are killing people with one hand while refusing to do so with the other.

Yeah, I've read this, now lets say that the liverpool university is client of ours, but then not a department that deals with terminally ill patients, but really on the other side of life, I can state its quite the opposite. The UK really is one on the forefront of ethics in the field where I'm working as opposed to their north american colleages where regulation for the sake of ethics only stands in the way of making more profit. I have many good friends, some medical professors from over the world, but when it comes to civilised ethics the UK wins hands down.
Walter,
