It is sad when trained professions don't read the warnings that come
out with certain drugs and then prescribe them like they were candy.
The manufactor recommended that it be used to combat insomnia for
short periods of time (2-3 months).  The cases where people freaked out
had been using the drug for a year and more.  As Lamont said the drug
is improperly perscribed and I don't think the drug company is at fault,
the doctors who misprescribed it should be held accountable.

On a single hit you can lose your soul and be thrown into hell for a few hours.
More likely tbhe more you take.  You might also be thrown into heaven.
Most likely, you'll know the difference better the next day.

 Although I am certainly no authority and have no place to judge, it never
stoppped me before so I must sya that your response to that person's most
was just about as ignorant as his. It is my guess that this is a VERY
common method of producing  meth: from epedrine via reduction. I'll site
some references for the hell of it too:

 Emde, Helv. Chim. Acta 12, 365 (1929); Chem Abst. 23: 3452 (1929);
Allen, A., Forensic Science Int. 42, 183 (1989). The latter is an
extensive review of reduction techniques (which I haven't yet been able to
read due to it being ripped out by someone whom I can only judge as being
a very evil person... ;-) :-( ). 
 Furthermore amphetamine can be rather easilly prepared from phenyalanine.
(Repke, D., J Pharm Sci 67, 1167 (1978). 
  But none of this means that any schmuck can go find a lab and make this,
of course...

Nope. Anyone who has the ability to make lsd knows enough organic chemistry

The manufacturers make their product "individual" by the subject matter on

There could be - but there isn't. At least, no one has ever documented any

Nope - no strychnine. Never has been - probably never will be.

Certainly, it is possible. However, for blotter acid, I doubt if it will ever

is not going to bother (too much effort).

Will people comply with a little law (a license for using marijuana) when
they are already willing to break a big law (marijuana prohibition)?

Some will.  Some won't.  Some will because complying with the little law --
paying a small license fee COMPLETELY PROTECTS them from any prosecution.
No risk of jail.  No risk of lawyers' fees.  No risk of losing your 
property.  It is like buying an insurance policy against going to jail
for using pot.  It is, in some sense, like a protection racket.
Pay me, and I won't firebomb your business.  Libertarians will easily
point out the comparison between government coercion to pay taxes (or
obey a myriad of questionable laws) and criminal extortion.

How many automobile drivers have never been stopped by the police while
driving?  I have been stopped very rarely.  One could probably do a 
calculus that the risk of being stopped driving a car if one never
obtained a drivers license is pretty small.  Yet, knowing that, most
of us do have drivers licenses (although its generalized use for
identification and check cashing is a powerful incentive having 
nothing to do with actually driving).

Hello once again, fellow alt.drugs net-ers!

I am curious of a few things.  I know that there are quite a few NORML groups
across the country.  I know that they are fighting for the legalization or
at least the de-criminalization of marijuana.  

I have read (here in alt.drugs) that they do some lobbying and other things.
I have also heard of proposals to make TV commercials and other BIG        
advertisements to show America the true facts, and not all the crazy info
that the government wants us to believe.  Obviously TV commercials and other
big ads costs lots of money.       

What are some of the things that we can do locally to make a difference?
A lot of people don't know much about drugs at all, except to "Just say NO."
I think that NORML has been trying to do a lot in the past and present, but
I think that if individual people started educating those around them that
maybe we can make a difference.  Hell, alcohol seems to be a lot more dangerous
than MJ, and it's legal!  I'm curious as to what I can do here, on campus,
to help promote drug reform laws.  Any imput would greatly be appreciated!

  I find this really extremely dubious, published in the newspaper or not --
at least, if what was on those "tabs" was really LSD.  The dosage for LSD
which is actually toxic is much greater than 100 times the effective dosage;
death from "only" 20 doses, even with alcohol, seems very implausible.

  Finding out whether "tab" in this context means tablet (which could contain
a large quantity of a variety of things) or blotter paper (which can not 
contain very much of anything) would be fairly helpful.

  Can someone in England get hold of the toxicologist's report, and find 
out whether those "tabs" in fact contained LSD or some other drug which 
was being sold as LSD?  Or are such reports not public information?

It is possible, but highly unlikely. In the first place, the dealer has
to obtain the poison - not that easy. In the second, he has to be able

not easy. In the third place, no such adulterated blotter has been found.

The dealers are going to put their efforts into sale - which is easy and
straightforward. Adulteration takes far too much effort. In this, it is
different than the drugs that come in powder form, which are easy to bulk
out with some other substance - that only takes a few minutes.

I doubt if a dealer would try to make his product "speedier". After all,
