from an article about the movie Blood Diamond possibly influencing consumers decisions to buy jewelery:
'Marshal Cohen, chief industry analyst with NPD Group, expects the jewelry industry will be able to survive the movie with its reputation largely unscathed.
"If the movie is very negative, there could be a three-week blip in sales but then people get over it. Consumers will move on," he said.'
Ouch. Goddamn we have a short memor... hey! wanna go ride bikes?
