Sharmin:
Thank you very much Andy - as always you have answered my question very thouroughly. I hope that Sadelaine's study goes well (and as quick is possible:)).

I think perhaps researchers have had a tendency to get far too excited about new developments in genetic research. Yes, the discoveries and findings have much theoretical promise, but getting to the point where any of this can be useful to those who need help today, is a long difficult road with many unforeseen obstacles. Making something happen is one thing, but having it happen only where and when you want it to, has proven to be the biggest challenge. If Dr Sadelain's vehicle to deliver a good hemoglobin gene to a patient works as hoped, it will be a huge breakthrough not only for thalassemia but also for other genetic disorders. Let us hope this vehicle drives only where needed and causes change only where directed.

HAPPY NEW YEAR FOR ALL
Dear Andy
i don't know why i return back on my memory 10 years back when i was in LONDON when i read your replay a bout the vehicle who is going to carry the gene who is going to solve all our problems (almost) ..
as i said before i talk to Professor Jhon Porter in UCH and he is a heamatolochist he told me we got the gene who is going to treat the thalass. but as you said Andy we do not have this vehicle to carry it ( we reach the moon and mars and we still search fro vehicle to carry that gene)..
Also same answer i got it from Prof.Lucaralli also same answer i got it from kuwaity Prof. his name is Prof.Salim .. hope and i think evrybody will pray with me that one day they will find this vehicle (hope it will be from LAMBORCHINI or MAZZERATI :rotfl )
