I invested heavily in ICOS when they launched, they had Bill Gates money and were looking for ways to extend lifespans and solve inflammation. And all we got was another boner pill.

Lifespans and inflammation are ironically harder problems.

  Yes, but we don't want medical science to go soft by focusing on the easy problems.

During your extended lifetime, wouldn't you like to be able to have a boner, though?

  Picasso managed it all without these meds.

    If you're saying it's easy, just be as good as Picasso, imma be real with you and say I'm not as good as Picasso.

  I do admire the fact that someone with a sense of humor at ICOS named the molecule TADA-lafil.
