Dear David, Sounds like when Valium (R) was going to run out of patent protection they put a little V on the inside of the tablet as a cutout and trademarked that...... the idea was that no one would want a plain tablet (generic and cheaper) that didn't look the same as "mother's little helper" this may help with Nomai disks, by putting something like Fido suggested on the disks........ 100% Zip or Genuine Zip, but they wouldn't want to exclude their cobranders...... this sounds like a salesman's misunderstanding JMJ
