Hello Grant,

I've read your messages but am still at a loss as to exactly what is
to be gained by any confirmed HG I1c by participating in your study.
Can you explain what sort of comparative study you plan and how it
would benefit those who join? I need something clear and concise to
relay to my I1c folks. It would be best if you could post your
response here so others can benefit from it.

Patrick
