DiaS, BigShane also mentioned Russian labels some time ago

I was studying your projection of product needed which only came up with 1MM per month.

I think it is a lot higher

1. If I just take your pop #'s of the countries listed that is 7X that of the US So 1.75 + .25 = 2 MM

2. Then what about Russia India(2nd most pop) Indonesia(3rd most pop) South America Central America Austria New Zealand

3. If Astra and Janssen are better marketers than Vivus then using script #s from US gives low value.

4. I think many other cultures are less squimish than Americans

5. I believe many countries such as Japan and European nations have an older population than US. ( Point is it is the older pop that needs the help.) Their baby boom was earlier than ours. Right after WWII. Ours was delayed by Korea. I was born in 51 My younger sister who was born in 55 had TWICE! as many school mates as I. The bulge of the boomers is really from 1955 - 59 so they are only reaching 40's now. You go downhill fast from 40 to 50.
