It's a bit harder than that, but yeah, it's not too hard if you either have access to the right chemicals (most are controlled, now) or can synthesise or extract the right chemicals. I've got a PDF deatailing it if you're knowledgable in the chemistry departemnt and would like an interesting read.
Not really, there was a werid study done, the crackpipe itself is more addictive then the drug itself.
They took users, and made them snort, shoot up and smoke it, they found that users smoking it, craved more often then the non smokers. They put this down to, smoking it is more social, and it gives you the "Macca's" effect.
Many people that have "quit" meth do so by moving from Meth to speed, as you can still smoke whiz.
YAY you remembered something!
The basic make up of amphetamines is made in the body, and used by doctors.
Adrenaline anyone?
I think I remember reading something like that too.
Belive it was in a news link on:

I did read the link about why is cannabis illegal and I must say, I enjoyed that reading as it was very informative. Political and economical interests made a plant... A PLANT with so many uses illegal... and now the world is under a veil of ignorance because of some stupid racist assholes with economical interests and hidden agendas.
I have never used a narcotic, or drug or even have smoked a cig in my life and will never do, that's not my thing.
It's good to have the right knowledge at hand, makes for some interesting conversation topics and helps to clear doubts and to illustrate my pothead pals.
Kudos to the intelligent posters, you've made my night..![]()

I will miss you guys.
It is more or less impossible to fatally OD on THC. Assuming an average weight male smoking some very high quality stuff, you'd need to absord the THC from 21 grams of weed in a very short sitting to have approximately a 50% chance of dying. This is presuming that absolutely none of the THC is lost through the smoke or in the lungs (which is inevitable, but ignored for the sake of calculations) and that the smoker hasn't built up any tolerance to it (which is pretty much inevitable as well).
No-one is smoking that amount all in one go. They'd pass out long before it became an issue.

With alcohol, there's a recommended weekly intake, and if you don't go over it, you won't have a problem. Doctors give warnings and it's up to the person if they want to drink too much after that. Basically, if you don't abuse alcohol, it won't abuse you.
The same can't be said for cannabis. You can't determine a recommended dose as easily because it's effects are more unpredictable. The majority of people will say it relaxes them, but there are others who have unwanted psychological reactions to it. You can google "cannabis induced psychosis" and you'll find a wealth of info on it. Alcohol doesn't fuck with you mentally like that which is why governments aren't as enthusiastic about legalising cannabis as they are about legalising alcohol.
That happens to me sometimes. It really depends on the mood and current events and where I'm at while doing it. I don't smoke anymore.
Well, I meant for me, sorry. Not your friend or people in general.
