Loyola psychiatrist Renshaw offers the instructive example of a couple who came to see her the day after the man had taken Viagra for the first time: "They went to bed to wait for something to happen and fell asleep while they were waiting. They forgot to have foreplay. They expected an instant erection." The next night, after Renshaw gently reminded them about the importance of stimulation, they had intercourse for the first time in three years...
Even supporters of the pill worry about hyped expectations. "People always want a quick fix," complains Dr. Domeena Renshaw, a psychiatrist who directs the Loyola Sex Therapy Clinic outside Chicago.

When they finally, lightly...
...even as two of the three major networks changed hands within 48 hours, the House passed a bill scrapping the regulations that have governed the industry for the past six decades. "The landscape for the entertainment industry is completely different now," says John Turo, an analyst with Rodman & Renshaw, a Chicago-based brokerage firm. "From here on we should expect to see continued consolidation within the industry, a consolidation that will move along at a crushing speed...
