Users and Abusers!

 No doubt J. Davidson's heart is in the right place (Letters, January 31) as he deplores the human tragedy and social waste of what he calls ``drug abuse.'' However, he fails to differentiate between drug use and drug abuse. 
Who is inside and who is outside his circle? Americans spend over $3 billion annually on Prozac, are they abusers? Or tobacco smokers? Coffee drinkers; how often must one drink a cup of coffee to become an abuser. There are 40 million or more occasional users of marijuana. Which are abusers and which are not? On the drug issue debate we haven't yet defined the issue. Is it any wonder we have made so little progress in setting effective policy? GERALD M. SUTLIFF
