What will change?
Source: Washington Post
Marijuana use remains widespread and many heroin users prefer to snort the drug rather than inject it, according to a report that White House drug policy director Gen. Barry McCaffrey planned to release today. 
The findings are contained in "Pulse Check: Trends in Drug Abuse," which McCaffrey's office releases twice a year. The latest report covers the first half of 1998. The report covers marijuana, cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine and so-called club drugs, such as Ecstasy and Ketamine. According to the report.If drug use is continuing will they finally see that they need to change their policies more towards harm reduction? Just a thought!

Snorting Heroin - Some Good News?
Hi guys!I wasn't aware that some heroin users snorted the drug. While it's sad that some folks are addicted to this chemical, I think that snorting it is probably a safer way to take it, since the user who snorts heroin is *probably* less likely to die of an overdose, than is the user who injects it. This is just a thought that occurred to me.Hey FoM, I don't know if you'll get a chance to read this, but I posted a message at the MSNBC Social Issues Bd   http://bbs.msnbc.com/bbs/msnbc-social/index.asp with a link to this site, and the San Jose Mercury (News?) article you posted here called: "Scientists find out how brain chemical acts like pot."Thanks, FoM, guys.Pat.
