FWIW..from the yahoo board Just sitting hear listening to the morning show on the local alternative rock station when something caught my ear: They mentioned Vivus! One of the DJ's was reading the local paper and there was an article about the NBC rejection. This whole thing with NBC has turned out to be probably the smartest thing Vivus management has ever done (whether they knew what they were doing or not)! In answer to whether or not to sell now at $14, that's a good question. I've decided to hold till the advertising campaign starts in earnest Jan. 31 with the golf tourn. If the news about NBC can drive the price up this much I can only imagine (and hope) what a real ad campaign will do to stock price. I must say, VVUS sure makes life a lot more intresting! RR
