To avoid any possible confusion, here's a description of the ones I'm talking about:
logo: raised outline of an alien head with two eye outlines and no nose or mouth, the 'chin' of the alien head tapers to a point and practically touches the edge of the tablet
diameter: exactly 9mm
thickness: approximately 2 to 3 mm
tablet mass: approximately 200 to 230mg
colour: light speckly purple
odour: grapes
shape: cylindrical, edge is not sharp, but slightly bevelled, flat bottom and top, flat shiny sides
surface texture: smooth and slightly shiny
hardness: well made - can't be broken with one hand
taste: NASTY
I read about a lot of tabs at the pillreports site but I find that practically all descriptions are not very helpful since there would be, for example, many many different 'smilies'. I'm sure there are a LOT of counterfeits, but if people were much more detailed about the descriptions, there would be much clarification because I doubt when people counterfeit, they will bother to produce them with such precision. They'll probably just roughly copy the logo and maybe the color.
