...dopa, MDA and deprenyl, the entry on aphrodisiacs adds as an afterthought that in some combinations these drugs can be fatal. Essays praising the beneficial effects of psychedelics and smart drugs on the "information processing" power of the brain sit alongside RANTS that declare, among other things, that "safe sex is boring sex" and that "cheap thrills...
...really understands the long-term health consequences of holding a microwave transmitter next to your brain because nobody has thoroughly studied them. To ease fears, Motorola held a press conference last week and claimed that "thousands of studies" had proved their cellular telephones safe. But when asked to name three studies that showed the phones do not cause tumors, a company spokesman could cite only one 10-year-old report and two others with ambiguous results.

The greatest irony of all is that the Cambridge City Council smugly thinks it's done its part to help out the homeless by preventing ABP from ejecting its regular horde of homeless patrons. It seems to me a safe, clean place to live might be more important than the right to freeze to death after munching an overpriced baguette...
