The nostalgia-laden Sleepless in Seattle album contained actual songs from the movie, like Louis Armstrong's classy A Kiss to Build a Dream On. This shameless Sleepless sequel, featuring selections like Al Jolson's Sonny Boy, includes a disclaimer: ''None of the recordings in this collection appear in the motion picture Sleepless in Seattle.''

Then there are the doctors who, seduced by the standard three-pronged charm offensive of drug company sales reps - food, flattery and friendship - respond by prescribing certain drugs with a frequency they wouldn't otherwise have contemplated. "Researchers are shameless in colluding with the drug companies in a lot of their shenanigans," says Angell from her home in Cambridge, Massachusetts - and for her that's the most demoralizing part of the mess.
