Dolts like you really make me laugh, Storga. Your IQ being less than your shoe
size, you simply cannot grasp the concept of someone who objects to police
state measures against drugs but is NOT A DRUG USER. So when you read a
posting such as mine, the wheels turn slowly and creakily in your head, and
out pops the conclusion, "Aha, he's a junkie". Then the wheels turn some more,
producing a stream of verbiage that has nothing to do with my posting, while
you remain blissfully ignorant that your premise is false.

One of these days, good little citizen Storga will go in eagerly for his drug
test, happy and grateful for this chance to show that he's clean, and WHAM -
false positive. I wish I could be around when that happens.

Well, that's enough of flaming. It's not nice to engage in a battle of wits
with an unarmed person, and anyway you're not worth the time. I'm forcing
followups to alt.flame, which I don't read, so you can rant and rave to your
little heart's content.
