...Plant has now reopened under its new management. "The only question from musicians was whether there would be marshals here, standing around in trench coats," says Claire Pister, the studio's manager. But the G-men, who generally visit only to pick up the mail, boast that the studio is doing better business than before they took over the place. COSMETICS Dr. Barnard's Youth Potion...
