forty-five year old Irish creative genius with graduate degrees,<br />

from Cambridge, in both psychology and mathematics. Branch was an<br />

Executive Vice President at DE&O, and still on his way up_<br />

"What do you have?" asked Delos.<br />

"Let me fill you in a little first ••• it concerns our<br />

Nu-Clear Beer- campaign."<br />

"I actualy like the pisswater."<br />

Don chuckled. "Well, we had a questionaire filled out in the<br />

Testing Room which revealed, by the usual multivariate regression<br />

analysis, that the viewers were responding positively ••• and this<br />

was sort of surprising ••• to the tatoo of a mushroom cloud on the<br />

arm of the beer-drinker featured in the spot. So, ah, we stuck in<br />

a close-up of the tatoo ••• this here mushroom cloud ••• and the<br />

response was again significantly positive ••• strongly positive •••<br />

enough so that I formed a little team to follow up on the matter.<br />

Well, to make .a long story shorter, we got hold of some films of<br />

nuclear explosions, and made up some new spots ••• and we ••• uh •••<br />

also, on my suggestipn,changed the name of the product by simply<br />

removing the hyphen and putting it all in caps. I think that you<br />

might be interested in seeing this stuff."<br />

"Have you run any tests on the new spots?" asked Henry, not<br />

quite sure why Don was making such a fuss.<br />

"Oh yeah!" said Don like a used-car salesman who was about<br />

to sell the lemon-of-the-year. "I wouldn't have bothered you,<br />

Henry, if we hadn't7 commercial recall was the highest that we've<br />

ever registered, and brand recognition was outstanding: ninety­<br />

five slash seventy-five percent."<br />
