Well, at least part of the reason you can't understand it is because you never tried them.
I got some good stuff for the dentistry thing. They helped with pain certainty. But my experience with users is hardly convincing of how great a deal it is. Starting with pops and booze.
Quote from: REHow would you know if you liked Kidneys if you never tried them? Even better, how would you know if you liked sex if you never tried it?
Good thing I tried a little narcotics. Did good for pain. Made me woozy.
Quote from: REGenerally speaking, if you like Sex & Rock music, you'll like drugs. Perhaps you don't like sex and/or rock, so drugs have no appeal for you.Painting with a broad brush, while amusing, doesn't work on me. I am quite thrilled with sex and rock music, although nowadays I mix in everything from classical to country, the newer stuff doesn't do much for me though.
Quote from: REAnyhow, whatever the reason is, your inability to understand it probably goes back to childhood and you were grossed out by seeing people doing drugs or getting drunk and you couldn't understand it.Methinks you project too much from the perspective of a city kid. Never saw anyone doing drugs, just pops and booze. Occasional moonshine in the holler.
Quote from: REYou never got over that initial impression, never tried it and so it hardened into your current opinion, which is rather childish.Oh...I've seen your speculating on all sorts of topics, and how amusingly your use of IQ for actual experience works out sometimes. I loved your La Longue Carabine tales on peakoil.com, from experience gained while at summer camp.

I'll stick with a scientists perspective, thanks.
