 N>>> bk> Advertising can add to it's success.

 RN>> If it isn't a good product that disappears off the shelf faster than
 RN>> sliced bread, then no amout of advertising will help.

 TW> I could dispute that a little In my lifetine I have seen some Real
 TW> Junk or Worthless products sold solely on the strength of the Mega
 TW> Advertizing campains. As P.T. Barnum said "There is a Sucker Born
 TW> Every Minute". And the Madison Avenue Ad agencies take Maximum
 TW> advantage of that Fact.

Most folks don't know that P.T. Barnum's first name was 'Phineas.'
