SOMEONE FINALLY RESPONDS TO WORLDWIDE NON-DEMAND FOR "CLINICAL STRENGTH" DEODORANT

Another in the recent rash of bizarre "new and improved" products of highly questionable value: Clinical Strength Secret brand deodorant. There are any number of products that are at least somewhat embarrassing to purchase in a pharmacy or to be discovered in one's medicine cabinet, but how bad does it have to be to require a clinical strength deodorant? "Excuse me, clerk, but regular over-the-counter deodorants simply won't do because, you see, I sweat so much and smell so bad that I should probably just check myself into a hospital."

Along similar lines, I recently saw a car commercial that touted a "heartbeat sensor" that would detect if an intruder was inside your car as you approached it. Outside of the world of horribly cliched film and television, does this ever actually happen to anyone?
