All,
One topic that I have not yet seen discussed on this listserver is the 
pharmaceutical manufacturer industry.  Does anyone know any of the 
following:
(1) What position(s) have pharmaceutical manufacturers taken on 
residential waste pharmaceutical take-back programs, if any?
(2) Is there an industry organization?
(3) Does the industry have an environmental leader?
(4) Has anyone developed a productive relationship with a pharmaceutical 
company in regard to waste issues (particularly residential wastes)?
(5) Are there any industry issues that folks interested in residential 
waste pharmaceutical take-back should be aware of prior to initiating a 
conversation with pharmaceutical manufacturers?
