Yes what you say is true, but it can also kill you I am a dialysis patient and I take it, but believe me I am no super man. Duncan

Imagine how a weak and lethargic a sedentary individual feels if afflicted with anemia. Treat them with erythropoietin and their strength comes back and they feel invigorated and energized to excel an mundane every day tasks. Now take a high performance athlete, were fractions of a percent in performance can make the difference of millions of dollars, treat them with EPO and you can't see the benefit? This should be obvious. malmo -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bob Duncan Sent: Friday, August 18, 2006 11:26 PM To: Martin J.

Maybe Marion needs to give the 400m a shot before they yank her. (She was supposed to run Weltklasse today in a loaded field, but I don't want to know what happened until I watch the WCSN video!). She was defeated at Rome and that was her first defeat of the year. I don't know if she was beaten again or what. bob ----- Original Message ----- From: "Martin J.
