Herb Greenberg, isn't he on the record as being short VVUS? "If Integrated, which had 6,000 patients last quarter, slows down, Vivus could be a victim. " gee, are all 6,000 patients for the quarter all going to the same 5 centers being closed? Are they all responsible for the $100 million dollars in VVUS sales? Could it be that the center is poorly run? i guess these 6,000 guys are going to suddenly give up with sex now that no other doctor can prescribe MUSE. btw, I do not believe in coincidences, never have. You have Cramer, <a stated short on vvus and long on pfe>, bashing VVUS on CNBC, you have PFE/ Viagra hype past several weeks, you have not one, but 2 Greenberg columns within days of each other, you have the Assenio report, anything i'm forgeting here? yeah yeah yeah, and there was someone on the grassy knoll. i know. blah blah blah............ for those of you who think VVUS management isn't doing enough, you probably also think they care...........well, wake up, they don't care. you think they care about a short term blip in share price? or the value of some traders portfolio? they don't. they're here for the Long Term. They have VVUS in mind for the next 3 to 5 years, trying to do the things that will benefit the company most over that time frame. so what's changed in the past 2 weeks? fundamentals? NO perception, absolutely; and this folks is how a stock price is being manipulated. btw, anyone else notice how much the word "bre-x" is being used around here now? Amazing how the shorts get the longs to change their vocabulary. Mike
