I'd love to continue - but I'm pretty booked up this evening. I love this type of discussion.
It doesn't much interrupt my work - it get some 'dead' time while waiting for things to run...
I agree - somewhat - about drug adverising. It does take a lot of money to develop new stuff, so advertising generates revenue, right? And - my best performing mutual fund is in the health care sector, so I hate to complain too much about profits.
And I doubt if it was oil co. lobbying that led to that decision. It was so good for them I doubt if even *they* could have dreamt it up.
