I'd guess that he would be type to charge you for a brand medication but really fill it with the generic equivalent. Some generics have the same markings so they appear identical to their brand counterpart, but they cost significantly less. This would probably be a good analogy based on the morals he has shown. At least the money was returned, unfortunately it was only to prevent exposure, not out of any moral obligation.

cool username... Marburg & Ebola are indeed nearly perfect pathogens. No doubt you have read "The Hot Zone"... it's a fantastic and frightening book. Most people have no idea how lucky we were that Reston caused only subclinical disease in humans. Luckily again in 2014-2015 when the West Africa epidemic did not wreak too much havoc here; it easily could have given the CDC's inept response.

I agree. Out of the few cases in the US, my colleague was the one who brought it to NY. My lab was a mess. After many years studying it, it was the closet opportunity I had to deal with it, unfortunately the mass amounts of regulations (and usually for the better) who not allow me to play with it. There is a time and place.

Richard Preston is a great dude! Super nice, and great person to talk too. I also have all his books. Great reads.

What a douche. Even if you were to get cheated which is clearly not the case here, doesnt give you any right to do the same thing to another person. You clearly dont get the point and have no moral enthics. You just refunded whilst bitching about it to avoid any further harassment on your personal life, not because you truly learned your mistake. What a waste of space in this already crowded planet.

the vasodilation that drugs like viagra cause can become pretty dangerous if not dosed properly. it can literally bottom out your blood pressure. Priapism (the 4+ hour erection) isnt even the worst of it. if your blood pressure drops below ~60 systolic, your body starts shunting and you no longer get perfusion to your kidneys. its definitely bad if not dealt with reasonably quick. 97.5% of the time i have seen it in the ER it has been because of people taking more than the doctor recommend dose. Viagra/Cialis can give you the erection, but if you want to last for hours, opiate narcotic analgesic's cause a minor systemic wide "numbing" effect, similar to if you used a condom with the numbing gel inside. of course, I absolutely do not advocate taking any drug for anything other than its doctor prescribed use and dosage.


but yea....hours man...hours!


Crazy, and quite interesting!
I had no idea!

This thread was crazy... I don't know why I just sat through reading this lol but I'm very happy the member got their refund. Good job guys! By the way, Strodda has serviced a number of pams for me and they have been running like a charm for years!

glad to see everything worked out in the end!

although I'm shocked...no...astounded, that this ordeal was able to be resolved without a single member being called a fuckbag.

I'll chalk that one up as a win in my book :)

WOW, my favorite part was when he offered it for sale in the brig. That's twenty minute of my life I will never get back...

[MENTION=42327]Raddave[/MENTION] I just wonder if I can ever get out of the brig. It is really boring just to see the brig when I log into the forum :( . I want to buy some more watches and especially check what BK has to offer.
I just went to have an estimate to fix the Panerai watch. Luckily (maybe not), I found one small store in a big mall named "fast fix jewelry and watch repair" that actually agreed to take a look. They quoted me $395 and 2 weeks to fix the watch. They said the watch needs an overhaul ?!? well, all other stores refuse to fix replica :( --> real story!
I think I must be crazy to spend that money to fix when the new one from BK costs the same. Anyone know a CONUS rep-friendly watchsmith that won't charge an astronomical amount of money? Can someone help me out? please no Strodda Thanks.

Or anyone want my watch for free? and if you think it is worth something, you can give me an early Christmas gift? at least it is a very nice build. [this is not a sale ad by any means] :yawn:
