<Let me point out that the "you" is not me, but I do want to make comment. <Perhaps some of the problems associated with this discussion are directly <related to the illegality of purchasing drugs (marijuana, hashish, heroin, <cocaine, etc.). Quite possibly there will be no more than allusions to other <knowledge in order not to draw attention to oneself. Not only is use illegal <in most parts of the country, being associated with use can lead to employer <investigations, etc. OK. Let's be specific... My experience comes from past knowledge (not illicit) from the law enforcement community. Frankly, I can't imagine anyone who actually traffics writing an article on the net, simply because of the usual mind-set of such individuals (well, I almost used a different word than "individual", but...), but just because I can't imagine that doesn't mean much. Frankly, Cliff, statements like yours could lead to employer/legal investigations of people, too. Perhaps you ought to consider that. Perhaps you ought to consider that in 1973-4-5 one could have likely gotten a warrant from your comments and the prior netnews articles.
