Jim,



Your's is the first time I've seen anyone use the above 

rationalization. The only justification I've heard was that the BRC 

doses were such that there was no need for regulatory intervention in 

that there was no risk.



If you can refer me to documentation that states your position, I'd 

be happy to seek it out.



Thanks,



Sandy
