-- Angler, we own shares in VVUS.

-- The plants have the name "PACO" plastered on them. On my first visit to the plant, upon not finding the "Vivus" name anywhere, I got real nervous. I even drove all over the industrial site hoping I had the wrong address. Wondering whether we were all being scammed and if Vivus made any product at all.

-- Anyway, turns out Paco (a sub of some type of NYSE company - West I think) uses these plants exclusively for Vivus. So going in there, asking the suits how it's going, etc... I just don't see the benefit. It's more important to make sure their parking lots don't resemble ghost towns.

Out.
