Actually, you just move the OTC stuff behind the counter and require ID to buy it.

Just as long as I can still buy my nose spray.

I used to be on the list for court appointed attorney in both Fairfax and Prince William, hundreds of cases, stopped in 1998, and I never saw a meth case. And now I cover cases from time to time for a guy who does only criminal law, and still never saw a meth case. This is in NoVa. Marijuana, cocaine, ecstasy, crack, prescription painkillers, but no meth.

Of course I've heard about it before, mostly as something bikers did, but it just didn't seem to be around here.

On the other hand, Ish, who lives in farm country, has been talking about it for years. It appears to be a bigger problem in rural areas than urban areas, maybe because it's harder to get other illegal drugs? Just another argument in favor of legalizing marijuana. ;^)
