This is a great academic discussion, but in reality the people we need to educate are the lawyers. I think almost all of the people on this list would agree that the reason steriods are given is simply to protect againt law suits. (Maybe that's over sipmlification, but there is a grain of truth to it.)

The  Trauma-List often invokes the Cochrane Group when discussing  the
literature, so I dropped by their site.

Trivia Question: 
Who  authored the Cochrane Review of the use of methylprednisolone in
spinal  cord injury?

First answer wins; no  peeking. 

I do know that it's not been updated since 2002 (yes, I did double check  
that)...
