^ On a side note: I used to teach at a couple of clinics here whose entire business was to run trials of non-FDA-approved medication in Mexico. They got the medicine for free, kept files on each patient and sent reports back to the USA, and in a cynical moment I realised that the big drug companies were apparently using this scale for testing the viability of new drugs: rats - monkeys - Mexicans - Americans.
