Pharma IS cool–reason #59.

Pharma. You know I love it:

An Associated Press review of records in Minnesota found that a doctor and pharmacist on the eight-member state panel simultaneously got big checks -
more than $350,000 to one - from pharmaceutical companies for speaking
about their products.

This stuff makes me crazy because while you can find all sorts of people and politicians eager to ban drug advertising to consumers, no one ever talks about pharma's payments to doctors. Even if you end the ads -- and I would favor such legislation if it applied only to Viva Viagra -- these payments will continue.
