Ironic. A could be cure for baldness that may not cost much $$$… every entrepreneur’s worst nightmare. If this works, look for Merck and HT docs. to put out a hit on Cotsaralis.

Yeah, that sucks. And it’s coming from someone who’s obviously in the know. However, I couldn’t find a date to that article. Hopefully it’s close to a ‘year or two’ old.

It could be a year old, actually. I just googled his article and it was published in May 2007. Hopefully Men’s Health was quick on the story and interviewed the Dr. soon after that (making summer 2008 right in that 1-2 year range).
