OK I said I wasn't going to use this forum but I am cleaning out my e-mail account and everytime someone posts I read it and...well fact is the Internet is a drug just like many other things! Anyone going to dispute what I just wrote - yep the Internet is a drug!
There are conflicting reports about the effects of various drugs, for example last year Harvard Medical School published results of research into ecstasy and the conclusion was quote...
"A new study carried out by a team at Harvard Medical School and published in the journal
Addiction last week, found no evidence that ecstasy causes brain damage. This is one of the largest ever studies into the effects of the drug ecstasy. The scientists responsible for the research concluded that many previous studies had made over-arching conclusions from insufficient data, and that the drug’s dangers have been greatly exaggerated. In contrast to many prior studies, ecstasy users in the new study showed no signs of cognitive impairment attributable to drug use: ecstasy use did not decrease mental ability."
Ecstasy Does Not Wreck the Mind
So this is new information from a highly credible source that contradicts claims from earlier sources, in which the way studies were conducted were biased.
So what I am asking is that honest facts be taken on board - not "knee jerk reactionism!"
