I wish I could say it is nicer to be back. I was hoping my being gone would some how have a cosmic effect on the stock and send its price soaring. Oh, well. I'll have to create a new fantasy. It looks like nothing has really happened. Again, script numbers are the only things we have to fuel this stock, unless we get an anouncement of a partnership or buyout. The script numbers for the week of the 4Th looked good. It was nice to see a rise, especially considering many people took off friday. I would like to see a few weeks back to back of continuing growth before I dare stake my glowing reputation (gg) on the line and say VVUS has finally turned its script numbers around. Colby
