interrogatory on the grounds that the word "substitute" is undefined. Abex objects to this interrogatory on the grounds that it lacks relevance to this case and is not reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence. Abex further objects to this interrogatory to the extent it seeks information on products which are not at issue in this case on the grounds that the information sought is not relevant and not reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence.
