The comment regarding walking billboards was not made by me, but by a
Medicine faculty member during a Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics
lecture in reference to several of her colleagues.

As far as we are discussing data, do you have any data regarding the lack of
any influence in prescribing practices?  What I stated was my own, personal
opinion based on personal observations during my 2 clinical years, where I
have rotated through 7 hospitals, in addition to my wife's experience as a
practicing physician.  We have both see it happen, as one physician stated
[paraphrased]" I prescribe whatever the drug rep brought in last week".  I
admit this is not typical, but it happens.

As far as opinions are concerned, everybody in this board is entitled to
his/her own opinion.  I have no interest in hyping this subject more than it
already is.  I thought the purpose of these boards was open discussion, not
personal attacks.  Case closed.
