...series of outrageous "Can you top this?" ads make an ever diminishing impact, a few dot.coms are apparently coming to the same conclusion. Outpost is going ahead with a less jarring ad.

...play an important role. Says Dr. Norman Nigro, chief of colon and rectal surgery at Detroit's Wayne State University: "Hemorrhoids run in families. People inherit veins that are apt to become dilated." Habit may also be a factor, including the "bathroom as library" syndrome.
