The Real Reason You Can Trust Pet Medicine!
Ask just about anyone on the street who regulates medications that a human takes and they can quickly tell you that it is the Food and Drug Administration.

For example, check out this site http://www.moock.org/ -- perhaps the only site out there with a blank homepage -- but stick around, there more here than meets the eye. The conference has been great -- nice to work with people who are as fired up about design and philosophy as they are about code...
