Leaders from countries with the largest methamphetamine production and sales met in St. Louis, Missouri Wednesday -- a state that busts more meth labs than any other; a state that also sees large quantities of meth brought in from international gangs.  The U.S., China and Mexico signed an agreement to share information and work to fight diversion of ingredients often used to make meth.
