It was a given we were going down more today the way we closed at the low of the day yesterday. I'll buy more when I see a move in the other direction. Craig

Vlad, I'm surprised nobody has mentioned.......................... The Viagra story on "Date Line" last night which was nothing short of a PFE-mercial. If prime :30 ads are say, 100K, PFE needs to pony up 1.4M for the exposure. The story minimized important side effects and did not define which populations may not benefit from the drug. Further, they implied that other remedies, Muse et al., may not be worth the trouble in relationship to the outcome of sexual intercourse, getting laid, the wild thing, the horizontal bop. Folks. What will the partners say about that once the mating-momentum (scientific term) is generated through interest in Viagra? This was not objective, scientific reporting. It was the front page, headline type of reporting that drives prime time ratings. From that perspective, it was a great report. No. An exceptional report. I hope to see more and I hope PFE starts spending money on ads soon because: A modest piece of a large number can drive a small company past the very brink of chest pounding, hip grinding success.(g) ED is a symptom, not a diagnosis.
