Much of the work on angiongensis was funded as charity by a private
corporation; Seagrams. Such industry - academic friendliness is
rapidly becoming a thing of the past, now that academia is using
tax money to unfairly compete with the private sector. The private
sector is the public, BTW, and once the public realizes they have
been had, the constituency for publicly funded universities
will flash evaporate.
