Excerpt:Didier Jambart cries in the courthouse in Rennes, western France, after hearing the ruling of an appeals court in his favor. His wife Christine comforts him. Nov. 28, 2012. (Frank Perry/AFP/Getty Images) A French man who claimed a Parkinson's drug turned him into a gambling and gay sex addict has been awarded 197,000 euros in damages, the French Press Agency reported. Didier Jambart, 52, of Nantes, France, sued the pharmaceutical giant GlaxoSmithKline in 2011, claiming the drug, Requip, caused him to lose 82,000 euros gambling on the Internet. He said he also became addicted to gay sex and risky sexual encounters. He said he was raped after starting the drug in 2003 and attempted suicide eight times. "It's a great day," Jambart, who was accompanied by his wife during the emotional ruling, told the French Press Agency.

Key:
- Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
- The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
- The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).
Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
