I'm thinking NOT spam.

Although permission from Johnny might be nice with this sort of thing.

Watcha think, Pugsy?

Not spam to my thinking either and they may very well have already asked permission. I am not privy to that end of things.
She told me a while back that often they are contacted prior to posting stuff like this by the people involved.
Either way (prior approval or not)...I saw it earlier and decided to leave it and quietly wished I would qualify as I could use the money but I am not remotely near the target areas and I have a sneaking suspicion that the meds mentioned might be a part of it and I haven't ever taken any of those meds.

I currently am on one of included medications and would like to be involved but same as you am outside the target area.

I don't qualify, but my opinion is this is an excellent use of the forum.

I am registered with a market research company and have participated in a few projects for fun. And they were fun.

Maybe a couple of our forum members will be selected to participate and then give us a report back.

In the past, I took part in a study for asthma medication. It just happened to be the medication I had been using for two or three years, and my insurance refused to provide it unless I could show that other, cheaper medications would not control my asthma. I ended getting two year supply of my medication free, and got paid for using it. What more could I have asked for.
