>Unfortunately I don’t think that this or any other article of this kind is much of a deterrent to doing drugs. About the only thing that would work is to take the person into the future so they can see how their life has been altered from the way they would like it to turn out. As we know, this is still not possible. When I was Mike’s age I heard the stories that LSD was not addictive. And all that BS that was told to us by others. I still don’t believe that it is. But, the addiction to the sensation IS real.

>What I read in the article was an isolated case. I am sure there are others, equally bizarre. 1 thing that I am sure everyone can agree on, is that there is nothing good that can come from drug use. Ask anyone who has ever been on anything, if their lives would not have been better if they had not used their particular poison. The list of people I know that have had no effect from drug or alcohol abuse is much, much smaller than the list of people I know that have had major side effects. The problem is how to let the people know before they start down this dark road.
