I noticed several people mentioned they have non-Hodgkins Lymphoma in their family. This merits a SERIOUS looking at:

It could save the life of someone you love.There are always two sides to every story. This is taken from a blogger that looks for trouble to bitch about to make us think that the world is wicked and they are of course one of the saviours. Studies are being done on the drugs but certainly are not the smoking gun that the bloggers scource of information, Dr. Press and another Doctor claim. Both Doctors acknowledge that they are paid by the the sponsers, this taken from the actual NY Times story:

"Dr. Press and Dr. Zelenetz acknowledge that they have their own financial incentives to support the drugs. Dr. Press has been paid to speak at medical education seminars sponsored by the makers of the drugs. Dr. Zelenetz has been paid when the companies sponsor clinical trials at Memorial Sloan-Kettering. But both said the money was a small part of their total income and had not colored their views." Of course the blogger never mentioned that part of the story and knows that most people will not do anymore research but will just take the word of a ego charged blogger. In short, take it with a small grain of salt and skepticism. Worth some thought maybe.
