Maybe we should be real careful what we ask for.  Some of these sites are
getting hit rates that are truly absurd when compared to their originally
projected numbers from knowledgable people.  

I have a feeling that we in our insulated AS/400 world have no true idea
what is being unleashed out there with the internet.  I've seen a test
site set up just as a demo of capability for the boss that was drawing
responses far beyond their aggressive advertising and 800 number
promotions.
