That isn't the order that they would do things in. I would add that you don't set up an expensive nicotine gum manufacturing line on spec when there is only one possible customer. I would assume that GUMM had a pretty solid committment from a customer before it set up the line. Companies frequently make deals that are contingent on future events, like FDA approval. I think that WPI shareholders should be interested in its nicotine gum product as something that could make a big contribution to the bottom line. How big a contribution depends on the quality of the product and the effectiveness of the marketing effort. If it turns out that GUMM is the manufacturer for the nicotine gum you can be assured about the quality end of thigs. If it is somebody else, good luck! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Posted: 07/13/1999 10:19 am EDT as a reply to: Msg 2677 by calman88
