...batches found in the victims' homes, and sent out half a million warning messages to physicians, hospitals and distributors. McNeil agreed to turn over all of the company's distribution records to the Illinois department of law enforcement and to bear the cost of collecting unused and unsold Tylenol, an expense that could reach into the millions of dollars. Until now, Tylenol enjoyed a solid reputation and healthy sales. Analysts estimate that Johnson & Johnson sells be tween $300 million and $400 million worth of the analgesic a year.

This seems somewhat less strange when one discovers that Paradise Lakes Resort bills itself as the country's first condominium development for nudists. It has been so successful since it opened last November that only three units remain unsold. And the townsfolk in nearby Land O' Lakes are not complaining, perhaps because a 12-ft. concrete wall screens Paradise from outside scrutiny.
