>Yes I was puzzled by the [xxx] link issue, it does contain one link to online pharmacies but that isn't its particular angle. It contains vast amounts of summaries and articles from scientific journals; it itself could not be classified as a peer reviewed or HON or "reliable source" site completely but it has some competent information. There is only one link on there that happens to go to online pharmacies, some of which probably don't exist anymore, I dunno, I never even noticed it until it was brought up. Whoever is behind the site also has multiple domain names for [xxx], some of which have nested deep links to the original front page of the site aforementioned.
