I think that we have to realise that tobacco and alcohol are only more damaging(when used immoderately) because they are freely available and seen as acceptable.

David Nutt....well, he has his opinions.....the only real value in lagalising the currently illegal drugs would be so that the government could perhaps tax them and of course ensure that they are of a standard composition.....meaning that they would not be adulterated with vim or other powder substances that could be as harmful as the drug they are 'cut' with.
