Gary, <<Read the PR again--this revenue shortfall is not just because of a one week Christmas shutdown, it is because they took 1 line or 25% of "machinery" out of present plant AT THE BEGINNING OF THIS QUARTER and moved it to the new plant to try to get it up and running. They have known for at least 3 months what this would do to production--and not a whisper til now?>>

Gary, if this is true, it is an excellent insight and probably explains the drop from 40 to 21. I wouldn't be surprised if certain people got a hold of the whisper. A 20 point drop from 40 to 20 based on Viagra's early approval seemed far fetched. Viagra has been a known factor for a long time.
