Jim - No, I would not have bought it in 1981, because 1 times sales is where I think it belongs. If it goes down 90% this cycle (vs. down 70% in the 1970's), it will be back to the correct level. KO's growth is not just slow lately; it has been slow since 1981. That's sort of my whole point. Can you find me another "great" "growth" stock with numbers anywhere near as bad as KO? (I'm talking about the numbers that cannot be faked, i.e. -- revenues). I think it would be difficult. Jon.
