When things are going well Madison Avenue pushes soft luxurious -expensive things. When things go south they go for strong, tough - andreliable.There's a TV ad going out here - with cartoon bears - the message"Widgets (or whatever the product's called) - Strong AND Tough!"The product - "bathroom tissues" (read toilet paper).I never understood the need for "scented" - a box of kitchen matchesleft in the bathroom works pefectly well.But when I think of toilet paper - "tough" and "strong" sort of creepsme out.Thankfully, they didn't inlcude a products comparison in graphic terms.I think the Economic Crisis may be worse than we've been lead tobelieve.charlie bps Thank You George!
