    Does anyone know who does these?

    I'd share this on the main page but there are a lot of users who wouldn't get the joke and start freaking out. On second thought....

    No . . . "The article did not address the actual effectiveness of the programs in improving vision" however it does point out the effectiveness of a well thought out marketing plan on the internet. Cripes, it seems that everyone now has a "virtual" business on the web these days. Minimal start-up investment, minimal legal or regulatory exposure and no responsibility to perform as advertised. Jeesh, you can even get glasses on line.

    You understand that it's a parody, right?

    I'd be interested in the new 'Cheetos' line of frames from the Safilo Group...I've called Safilo and Frito-Lay, but nobody ever returns my messages. Anybody got a rep's contact info?

    I had them for a bit. They left orange stains on my fingers when I was adjusting them.

    I see it as marketing potential. You see a person walking around with orange stains all over their eyes, nose, and ears and instantly think, "She's been wearing 'Cheetos'.
    But I also understand the shortfalls. My saltpan is still recovering from the Little Debbie Honeybuns line, but when you made that adjustment, it stuck!
