VLAD...Thanks for the info. I'll try to pass along pertinent info (if any) I hear while your on the road. At this point I think most folks have an idea what needs to occur to reverse the trend. The question is will it?

- After speaking in-depth with VLAD, I think it's time to Circle the Wagons and Fight Back.

- I'm taking names, e-mail addresses, phone numbers, shares, and any tidbits of info you want to pass along.

- I'm going to be the ringleader of our dissident shareholder group. Our group's goal is to force Vivus and CEO Leland to put themselves on the auction block for no less than $40 a share.

- I'm serious about this but terribly time-constrained. So e-mail me thru my e-mail address or thru SI's private messaging. Your info will remain private until a proposal is made to management. Once I have the backing of 1 million shares, I will personally carry out the plan.

- PS - I'm a cpa/mba/aiaf and this is no gag. I want full value for my Vivus shares. And $6 is not full value.

Thanks.

v,
what is uros??

i agree it seems to take much longer to get the repeat scrips up. i am still betting the turnaround will be in third qtr. basically due to efficiency of new plant, international sales, margins increasing, increasing public awareness and education of ed, and finally the realization of viagra limitations with severe ed patients.

we all are following these tall tell signs, should they not develop then i will sell at a substantial loss.

- Just put out first update. If you haven't responded - please do so.

- VLAD - I need your e-mail to put you on the distribution.

" - Thanks for responding. - We're up to 60,000 shares & 8 shareholders.
- Good start. Now let's add to it.
- One person made the point that Nina F. can't properly deal with 100
shareholders calling it. However, Mr. Leland himself would sit down
with one person representing 100 shareholders. - Thanks again."
