@TBusen Loving your work -- but on the fence as to whether we should include it in the repo since Merck poo-poo'ed us scraping their data. Is it okay with you if we decline and close? I'm honestly not sure what to do here, so if anyone has opinions please jump in. |

Yep no worries. Go ahead and decline. |

Thanks for being awesome, @TBusen - I'm sad we can't incorporate it, but really appreciate your efforts! |
