[Blunderov] I would be interested in your conclusions with regard to
home gym equipment if you care to pass them on. Kalkor (from whom,
sadly, we have not heard much lately) seems to be quite an expert on
these matters.
Here in SA we have many infomercials extolling the virtues of innovative
home gym equipment but six months later all the second-hand shops are
stuffed with dusty buns-busters, ab-flexors, air-walkers and similar.
An interesting lesson in marketing and consumerism - seemingly people
are happy to spend their money on these devices, abandon them and them
go out and buy yet other devices only to abandon those in turn.
There's gold in them thar hills!*
Best Regards
