You don't see General Motors or Altria/Philip Morris targeting just the "median car buyer" or "median cigarette smoker."
~Alypius PS--Fabio, this reply may not appear on the list. I think Bryan has been diverting my posts to some cyberfile 13. The last half dozen or so times I attempted to post, nothing ever appeared on the list, so I've pretty much given up trying. But I can still read everyone else's messages, so you can reply to me on the list if you wish to.
