The complaints even started in Kalamazoo, Mi., home to Upjohn and Eli Lilly!

That will come as quite a surprise to LLY, which seems to think it is headquartered in Indianapolis. And Upjohn is just another piece of the Pfizer empire out of NYC these days.

Why do you think it jumped up to 18-19 last year?

Stock promotion. How do you think Matrixx got in the crosshairs of this site's stock detractors to begin with?

Because the word of mouth, the "anecdotal evidence", was astoundingly good.

Live by "anecdotal evidence", die by "anecdotal evidence". Matrixx employed scientists with phonied-up credentials, used the "homeopathy" label to circumvent FDA oversight, used a container that encouraged misuse of the product, and now it's all come back to bite them in the ass. Hard.
