Fisher would be very smart - IMO -- to do such. Tough to tell, but it looks like Orcutt is competent.

Does Fisher do this sort of thing? Do they actually own the manufacturing capacity for anything that they sell? In the old days, it *seemed* to me that VWR and Fisher were merely distributors, very effective distributors.

life-science market and strengthens our self-manufactured product portfolio,'' said Paul M.
Montrone, chairman and chief executive officer of Fisher Scientific International. ``Fisher's
industry-leading products and services will be enhanced by Cole-Parmer's self-manufactured
product lines that include fluid-management systems and instruments, which are important
