James T Ensor writes "According to this story in the Village Voice S. 486 has already passed the Senate and is waiting for House approval. According to the bill, it would be illegal "to teach or demonstrate the manufacture of a controlled substance, or to distribute by any means information pertaining to, in whole or in part, the manufacture or use of a controlled substance." That includes Web sites, guys. And seeing the way things have been going lately, links to those Web sites as well. " You can read the bill by going to Thomas and searching for "methamphetamine".

The thing is alot of "controlled" substances are available with a prescription, and I might add legitimate uses. Cocaine and it's derivitives (lydocaine) are aenesthias (sp?), Dexedrine, desoxen (which I think is crystal meth) are used for the treatment of ADD, and narcolepsy. It's a pain to get these triplicate 'scripts filled tho.
