reap, Yeah, I think ADVP and Express have been goosing the margins, though I own ADVP. If you'd read analyst reports on Merck before this, they were all bemoaning the "lousy margins" at Medco. Merck could have helped their stock price by doing the accounting the other way. But that isn't the style at "Saint Merck." There is a liability on the co-pay and MRK would be wrong to ignore it, IMHO. Nary a single buggus biggus scarius here. <g> What we have is a Urinal reporter trying to make a name for herself and a couple of brokerage firms who are bringing the IPO down to load up for their own accounts.
