My take: if these medical professionals are refusing to prescribe pills because they have the possibility of harming a fertilized egg that they believe to be alive, do they also refuse to prescribe any medication that has the possibility of harming an embryo, fetus, child, or adult? Because, uh, that leaves them with very little to stand on.

Boston overweight women - research study

Found in the Boston Metro today (WARNING - link goes to the .pdf of the entire newspaper - a big download!) (www.metropoint.com if it doesn't work):

Women, Caucasian, 20-45:
We are currently screening subjects 15-50 lbs overweight and reimburse $100 for a single 1-hour visit.
Blood/cheek cell samples, measures of gum health.
If interested, call 617-892-8365 or email weightresearchNOSPAM@forsyth.org (I assume you're smart enough to extract the email address from that - I don't want these poor people being spammed).

Hop on. I emailed. (And yes, folks, I am 15-50 lbs overweight. In fact, weight charts for my height say that I'm more than 50 lbs overweight. Those can bite me, though.)
