For the record,  I just got a phone call from this guy - apparently he's
afraid that because I call bullshit on him in public, I'm also going to
"fill [his] email box with spam and stuff".

Very entertaining.  He even calls back and leaves messages when you hang
up on him!  Of course, while he's willing to call you on your cell phone
to bitch and moan, he's also a pussy: he hides his calling number.

HEY - ERIC!!!

FUCK OFF.

I like the idea of belief in drug-prohibition as a religion in that it is
a strongly held belief based on grossly insufficient evidence and
bolstered by faith born of intuitions flowing from the very beliefs they
are intended to support.
