There is an article in the Boston Globe today about the new rules  
about gifts from pharmaceutical firms. They are the strictest in the  
nation, I think that other states will follow suit in the next few  
years. I think that this trend began with the Nestle boycott and the  
Code and we have much to be proud of in raising awareness around  
marketing ethics in the medical arena.
