AVP.

Sue,

I'm not familiar with Avon's current business so please tell me if I'm wrong here. It seems to me that the new generation doesn't buy much makeup from them. Isn't makeup a highly brand sensitive item for women? I hope this doesn't sound chauvinistic, but aren't women notorious for buying certain brands that are in style. I don't get the feeling that Avon is at the top of their list. Assuming that Avon's makeup business deteriorates, what other business segments are they in that could generate growth in the future? Have sales of their makeup line fallen over the last few years?

I'm with Larry on the chart. It looks scary and hasn't shown any support yet. I do appreciate the suggestion for an end of the quarter bounce, however. I'm watching it.
