Brian, your right on the money! This rally, which is still in its early stages, is primarily a Rally which pays homage to MO's great fundamentals and steady earnings growth. With the cloud of punitive legislation having passed and Slick in big trouble, Investors can now focus on one of the Great Companies of all Time! There is plenty of good news that is not out yet here: Share Repurchase, Dividend increase, and a potential settlement on Big Tobacco's terms! We are at the beginning of a Renaissance for MO! We should encounter some initial resistance at $45, but that will be broken too on the way to new highs. The upside reward from these levels is great. Under $40 MO was selling as if was going out of business. The stock is DIRT CHEAP at these levels!

Brian, 1. Psychiatric problems increase 2. People start smoking and or smoke more. 3. People start drinking and or drink more. 4. People cook and eat at home more. I think that point 1 is indirectly related to MO in quite a strong way because people with psychiatric problems tend to smoke, drink and eat more! Thank God we're the sane ones with mo MO! later, geoff
