Wow MM, you need psychiatric help if a sales person can stimulate you to extreme anger for some odd reason. How do you get on walking through a mall? <No, the consequences would impinge on the person offering the poppy juice to me. I wouldn't be responsible for what I might do to him. > To say you aren't responsible for things you do is a bit strange. Do you have voices in your head telling you to do nasty things to people? That can be helped with appropriate treatment. Don't delay, get help today, before you see an advertisement for alcohol, or cars, or petrol or something else which offends you and you go off the deep end. Joking aside, I have a prospective customer for some poppy juice if you have any supplies available. Seriously, he could use the pain relief [for a spinal injury a year ago]. Actually, joking aside, my wife grows opium. Not always, but did this year and the crop was quite good. But the flowers last only a day then drop petals all over the place. Bumble bees love them. I suppose my friend could grow his own opium. I must suggest it to him. He probably hasn't thought of it and has no idea how you get the poppy juice. I suppose cyberspace has "How to do it" somewhere. It puzzles me that we are allowed to grow opium in NZ but we aren't allowed to grow marijuana. We can brew booze and drink it, but we aren't allowed to grow tobacco. We can buy and drink coffee and sell it and pretty much do anything we like with it, but drink old-formula Coca Cola and the totalitarians go ape and put people in prison and shoot them if they resist. Would you like some opium? You could come to NZ and plant a whole paddock of them. We have similar psychotic attitudes in NZ about other aspects of plants. The punishment for murdering trees on one's own property is worse than violently assaulting random people on street. I kid you not. I attended a restorative justice meeting a year or so ago resulting from a bloke getting some of his friends to illegally cut down a tree he didn't want [on his own land]. You should have heard the foaming at the mouth morons who I am sure would have pushed the "execute" button if they had one available. Quite insane. I can see how burning witches at the stake and other horrors have been popular over the millennia. Mqurice
