    Cheech and Chong[^] would probably disagree. What was that you were saying...

      I doubt "cure" is the correct word.

        We prefer using DDD, it's a proven methodology and no narcotics are necessary :thumbsup:

              Nagy drinks more by volume, DD drinks more by proportion!

                How does that work? Nagy is as skinny as a rake while Dave is more of the Luther Van Dross Eddie Murphy references in Delirious.

                      Probably not, but simple maths shows that as DD is about 3 times the mass of Nagy, Nagy would drink more by proportion while DD would drink more by volume, his gut would be as big as Nagy is.

                        Ah, you misunderstood me. Nagy drinks more by volume, by DD drinks more as a proportion of his total intake. Nagy consumes food and Gin, DD consumes mostly Gin and Beer. :-D

                          Most drugs ("medications"), viewed in a vacuum, are basically variations on poisons. The art, if you put it that way, of balancing the yin and yang of the malady and it's treatment pretty much sum up western medicine. More interesting:   did you know they treat hyperactive children with stimulants? Odd - but what boggles my mind is who did the experiment of "let's give this hyperactive kid some uppers and see what happens!"

                            I don't know but if I had to further a guess, some young adult who used to be a hyperactive kid got their hands on some methamphetamine while studying for university and noticed that it helped them focus. We all know what happened later in pursuit of their doctorate (or M.D.).
