Oct 4, 2011 at 18:13 comment added Jeff Burdges I meant merely that the free group strongly resembles a counterexample nothing more, i.e. stable, non-CM-trivial, etc. There have actually been attempts to build counterexamples inspired by Selah's work, but none got very far.
Oct 4, 2011 at 2:39 comment added James Freitag Hi Jeff. Thanks for the answer. I am not precisely sure I understand though. What does the free group have to do with the question, since free groups on two or more generators are stable, but not superstable, right? Or am I mistaken? Or am I right and are the free groups involved for other reasons? I don't really see why though...
