Some interesting stuff in Jan 29th Time mag about neuro-psychiatry. Might get some leads to articles about the effects of drugs on the brain from it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6971321054630380124.post-14698444164173358432007-01-26T19:17:00.000+13:002007-01-26T19:17:00.000+13:00You say "They have been shown to alter the "wiring...You say "They have been shown to alter the "wiring" in the brain PERMANENTLY through new axon and dendritic growth" and use the term murder.

As long as they are being promoted as 'herbal highs' and 'party pills' they are being misled. Thus it is not suicide but murder. <br /><br />They other people who get in the way of drugged persons have no choice, so it is not only their life that is at risk.<br /><br />I do have a problem with stopping people from having a free choice, but it is not so free and other people often pay the price!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6971321054630380124.post-19029592060870930432006-12-23T19:52:00.000+13:002006-12-23T19:52:00.000+13:00They are NOT getting away with murder.

People have the right to commit suicide either by intent or a result of a different intent. It is their life and no one else's.<br /><br />Furthermore the number of people that die from party pills is very low.<br /><br />But even if it was high it would not justify the right of everyone to take any substance they wish to no matter how much it harms them.<br /><br />Just like with alcohol it is a case of idiots suffering the consequences of their own actions.<br /><br />I think it is sad when people turn to either drugs, alcohol, or party pills to get a high/pleasure creator (though alcohol in moderation and as a celebratory thing not a pleasure creator is something I think is good).Kane Buncehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13704180687328220148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6971321054630380124.post-8291118397652324982006-12-22T07:43:00.000+13:002006-12-22T07:43:00.000+13:00Mawm,
