So very true - it's like this country still has a Nixon/Ronnie Raygun hangover. The breathless theorizing and the pearl-clutching is hilarious. It sounds like a personal use amount; who cares? There would not be this kind of hysteria from someone misplacing a bottle of Adderall or some opiate-based pain killer, would there?

I sure hope at some not too distant point in the future, "illegal" drugs like cocaine are decriminalized, too, and humanity will look back at this period in time and wonder just why people were so crazy...
