Ugh. I was going to just step out, but I can't let this pass, because it's incredibly insulting.

I'm not arguing for the banning of a substance. I'm not arguing one substance is subjectively better than another. I don't care that GHB or any other drug is being used in studies.

You're reading something into my comments that simply is not there. Please stop it.

What was your comment about then? You appear to be comparing simply effect per weight, and drawing conclusions from that?

[nknighthb]

My comment was about what was, in my view, an objectively inaccurate characterization of alcohol being "just as powerful" a CNS depressant as GHB. That is all it was. If you want to argue about something else, I'm not the opponent you're looking for.

If you were right, people would routinely refer to nicotine as being the most powerful street drug, given it's punch-per-gram ratio.

Yes, it turns out that my use of "power" and "potent" as synonyms is not universal. My deepest apologies for my inexcusably moronic assumption that people used a particular word the same way I do.

Are we done now?
