Karleen, I agree - not just for the woeful lack of Weissengerising, 
but for the high would-be academic tone, syntax and vocabulary. 
These long sentences and technical jargon ('outcomes' and 'dose 
response' are not words used by the people who write for newspapers) 
are a turn-off for most journalists....just say what you mean in 
plain English, PLEASE!
