Quote 11 Aug: Down HK$.01; H$1.66 (US$.2142) Bandai expects to sell
40 million of its "Tamagotchi" through March 1998. Doubtless, the buying
craze redounds to Playmates, as well.

Kirk Pearson, our friend at the Bandai thread, points to schoolmaster
and schoolmistress consternation at the virtual pet fad. Indeed,
more than a few Asian school systems are banning our little pets
left and right, thereby, as Mr. Pearson observes, virtually
guaranteeing that this forbidden fruit will taste the sweetest
to myriad children.

Claude, it will be interesting to hear what your acquaintance
at Fisher Price thinks about our new Playmates Toys' president.
