The U.S. Food and Drug Administration is taking steps to encourage drug testing research on pregnant women and children, recognizing the surprising lack of good information about both drug dosages and side effects when drugs are prescribed for these large subsets of the population. But gaining improved information means more research on pregnant women and children, requiring more research subjects from these groups and more risk to individuals who participate in research. How much risk is acceptable?

"What they're trying to do with radio, with this, uh, McCarron-Walter Act and a lot of other ways, is start by saying that they're protecting the public from wicked rock bands, or girlie magazines, or whatever. But, if you follow the chain of dominoes that falls down, what they're really trying to do is shut off our access to information itself. If they can't do it by law they know there's other ways to do it."
