- Rating prisons on Yelp. Quantified Institutions.
- Widespread fraud at Indian drug company that makes generic drugs widely sold in the United States. Maybe this article will cause people to stop buying their products. It isn’t obvious to me what to do about this problem, although apparently the fine was too small. Jail for the owners?
- Poisoning at Tsinghua University
- Association of Restless Leg Syndrome with glutamate

As Ranbaxy is an Indian company jailing it’s owners is something that the Indian government should do. It’s probably not the job of the US government to jail the executive of the companies of foreign countries.
Good news about the Yelp reviews of prisons– if Kermit Gosnell’s abortion clinic had been reviewed, I don’t think it could have been that bad for that long.
As for Roxio and many other problems, cheap reliable quantitative chemical analysis would help a lot. When I say “cheap”, I mean cheap enough that a lot of people have their own kits.
“Jail for the owners?” With fake drugs, it maybe you could pin murder on them, and then there’s no need to stop at jailing.
No need to stop at jailing? I was actually thinking that they might be doing some patients a favor by giving them Placebo instead of active drug!
