I saw this on the Yahoo front page and just chuckled a bit when I saw "AMD, a leading cause of blindness". I don't mean any harm so I hope no one is offended.

"What is age-related macular degeneration (AMD)?

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is an eye disease that destroys central vision. It damages the macula, a small area at the back of the eyeball. The macula provides color and the fine detail needed for central vision.

You need central vision for activities like reading, driving, and recognizing faces. Because AMD does not affect side vision, it does not lead to complete blindness. The risk of getting AMD increases as you get older, starting at age 50."

This belongs in "Off Topic" not here.

UK scientists set their sights on cure for AMD

?This development is exciting and encouraging for current and future generations of AMD patients. While treatments for ?wet AMD? are advancing rapidly, sadly patients with ?dry AMD? have had no prospect of any viable therapy. Our thanks and congratulations to the instigators of the London Project to Cure AMD.?

sadly OT wouldn't "get it"

Yeah, exactly why I posted here.



And deliberately posting in the wrong area will earn you a vacation.

See you in a week.

Then I guess I'll make a thread about Millitary "Intel" in history then.

Whether or not they get it , THIS DOESN'T BELONG HERE ! It has squat to do with AMD the company or video cards PERIOD !

Please post relevant info in the proper forum.

It's misleading, and is mucking up the Video forum. If you won't move it I'll just have to see about getting it deleted.

Jeez no need to take it so seriously. If you don't like it don't post in it. I'll delete the title. If the mods wanna delete it or move it they can.

it doesn't matter...besides you're just some guy who's been here a week, why do you even care? it's not your concern. if the mods feel it belongs in OT then they'll move it to OT.
