Drug Information Censorship Bill To Be Voted On

kableh writes: "H.R. 2987, also known as the "Methamphetamine Anti-Proliferation Act of 1999", is scheduled to "mark-up" on Tuesday, May 8th or Wednesday, May 9th. This bill would make many things illegal, including: "...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..." This is yet another attack on free speech on the Internet. I understand that many Slashdot readers may balk at first, but what is next? The complete text of the bill can be found here. "
