<<Perry, The difficulty I see with lack of coverage is how much and for how long? Sure everyone says it's like going to a movie $10 no big deal. But what about 2 times per month, 4 times, 6 times? Now we are talking about $60 per month $720 per year and these are the lower estimates of use being thrown around. Remember not everyone with ED has made a killing in PFE stock over the last year. Jim>> Jim I think caution is warranted, but lets looks at a few examples of things people purchase on a daily or weekly basis. I live in Canada so I don't have a good idea of what things cost over in the U.S. but if you look at the number of packs of cigarettes an individual will smoke in a day (1 to 2 packs) it's not so far fetched to imagine that a person will pay $10 to $20 a week to have sex. Now the obvious aruguement is that cigarettes are addictive but I think most men will emphatically state that sex is equally important and some may even say addictive. Other obvious examples: billions of dollars being spent on cosmetic items (i.e makeup) by both men and women which are purchased on a weekly or monthly basis. Clearly these people spend over $720 (your viagra $ per annum) a year on these products. I have no doubt that men will do the same for this pill. Bottom line is that withion a month we'll know who is right. Good luck. Perry
