I also have known many people who have experienced black outs. I think it is fairly common among people who are always looking for a new extreme experience. The way Jim Morrison (Doors) looked at drug experiences was intriguing ... 'gotta break through to the other side', See also Castenada. Ram Das, during the same period, advocated a similar view but was more guarded against destructive behavior. Just staying wasted on drugs and or alcohol seems like a ... waste. IMO I can't see any justifyable reason to do drugs that impair your abilities at all except as medication or for the Morrison adventure. The latter of which seems like a special category. I'm choosing clean and sober for my self. I like clarity of mind and productive purpose, which seems to get side tracked by habitual drug/alcohol use. There are quite a few issues in modern culture that don't really lend themselves to a resolute legal determination because they are too privately circumstantial. Drug use is one of them.
