Lest we get a little too complacent about outsmarting big city druggies,
may I remind
you that drug abuse and addiction rates are five times higher for medical
professionals
then they are for the general population.

Isn't this discussion getting just a bit off track? The kind of people who
do abuse prescription drugs are not likely to be able to pass themselves
off as sucessful yacht owners and globe cruising travellers. Last I heard
cocaine or crack was not considered prescription medication.
The boaters I know who have an abuse problem tend to abuse government
certified and approved drugs otherwise known as alcohol and to a lesser
extent, tobacco. But; being government approved, means it isn't a drug
abuse issue. :-((
Unless they attempt to evade the taxes on it, that is. (tsk, tsk)
