John, I haven't seen the Vivus commercial but interestingly enough I was talking on the phone several nights ago with a lady friend who became distracted during our conversation. She apologized for the distraction and mentioned an usual advertizement on TV. Although her TV volume was turned down, she said, she thought it was some drug called aprostadil for men. Judging by her reaction the ad must be quite effective. I'm glad Vivus didn't spend the 1.3 million to advertize during the Super Bowl. How many men would dare pull out a pad and pencil and write down Vivus's number in front of their macho beer buddies... RT
