the U.S. is for - it shows the planets and asks "Does anyone know what's out there?" and answers "Your doctor does." B.S.!! >> Agree with all you said, and is there anything more annoying than those ads -- the ones like the one you mentioned, that sometimes give the name of a drug, or even just the drug company, and no clue as to what the drug is for? It's because if they say what the drug is *for*, they have to give the side effects -- i guess that was the rule the drug companies were forced to asgree to, in order to advertise on TV. Hence all the *extremely* detailed and sometime unintentionally hilarious listing of side effects: "Heachache/stomacheache/coldandorflusymptoims/diarrhea/etc/etc/etc". lol. Oh, and "This drug is not for everyone -- se your doctor." Gee, you think? Hope you're well, Anne. Drugs or no. I'm literally sick from taking them, at the moment, but not quite ready yet to stop. hugs, walt
