*OT* Tim, I wonder in the case of most drugs if increased demand even HAS to result in increased price. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that in most cases the 'raw materials' for pills are not a problem, and the Pfizers of the world could simply crank out additional product the way Microsoft can simply 'burn' as many additional copies of Office as the market demands. The exception would be if demand spiked so high that additional manufacturing capacity had to be added.

Best regards,
John
