Why are you people touting VVUS on this thread? I would hope a lot of PFE holders would short more VVUS. Heck they should take all their fat profits and short more VVUS before a few peckers fall off. Disclaimer I am long VVUS.

<<<Perry, what is the source of your terrific misinformation about MUSE? A urologist says that it works for 70% of his properly trained patients! Jim >>> Jim I work in the area of medical research and have a few friends who are right now working on the problem of ED, and I can tell you for a fact that all PG drugs have a considerable downside, including MUSE. This is not to mention the fact that PGs have a considerable unpleasant effect on the women partners as well. I think that the history of VVUS's stock price and the Rx rate for MUSE basically strengthens my point that VVUS is basically caught up in the so called hype that Viagra is in. However I think there is no doubt that Viagra works and the compliance is quite high , I don't think the same thing can be said for MUSE. As far as the information by the urologist is concerned, I am very skeptical about any information posted on these threads unless backed up by an independent source, such as a news article, etc... Bottom line is that I would never have mentioned my short position on VVUS if it wasn't for the fact that you suggested to this thread to we were fat and needed to buy VVUS. I suggest to you that over time we may both be right and that VVUS and PFE will make us money on both the short (temporary) and long positions. Good luck. Perry BTW I will now stop talking about VVUS on the PFE thread.
