Shades, Re: "meth lab" I really believe that there is something seriously wrong with this picture. This stove-top meth lab business could be easily stopped but for some reason the necessary action is never taken and it just goes on and on. Makes you wonder if there is not a desire at some level or another for the practice to continue. To stop the meth lab business all the authorities would need to do would be to stop the sale of ephedrine and pseudo-ephedrine. All these stove top formulas you see on the internet require these chemicals as precursors. Without them the "route" to make the stuff is very difficult and involved, way beyond the ability of the average dunce you see captured at the meth lab busts on the 6:00 news. But these "cold pills" containing ephedrine, and in large amounts, continue to be sold over the counter. If these "cold pills" were just banned outright what would be the harm? It would stop the "crank epidemic" dead in its tracks. I really believe that in some quarters there must be a desire for this to continue, there is no other explanation. Slagle
