I didn't read his comments as being defeatist; rather as being a heads-up to possible complications that I see to be real. Minus the negativity of your own response, I think you clarified that the gorilla's fear did not arise during the effective events of last year. I found both events helpful, and hope that the infighting, which I don't see as being especially constructive, can be laid aside.Jonthonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14689170009367358841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18542739.post-1137068728466712612006-01-12T07:25:00.000-05:002006-01-12T07:25:00.000-05:00Mr. Walters might want to consider legally changin...Mr. Walters might want to consider legally changing his middle name to something that doesn't begin with the letter "P" before he begins this latest dog-and-pony show for urine testing; this is just too easy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18542739.post-1137051720936955992006-01-12T02:42:00.000-05:002006-01-12T02:42:00.000-05:00Brilliant.This ape should be president.::chuckle::...Brilliant.<BR/><BR/>This ape should be president.<BR/><BR/>::chuckle::Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18542739.post-1137014647743967532006-01-11T16:24:00.000-05:002006-01-11T16:24:00.000-05:00...getting the main speaker to not blithely ignore...<I>...getting the main speaker to not blithely ignore all of my comments or challenges is another matter.</I><BR/><BR/>You seem to have the exact same response when people have comments or challenges to the ridiculous things that you say here, Mr. Overweight Banana Eater.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18542739.post-1137008479866914622006-01-11T14:41:00.000-05:002006-01-11T14:41:00.000-05:00Big Fat Monkey Man-If you read the Drug War Chroni...Big Fat Monkey Man-<BR/><BR/>If you read the Drug War Chronicle article I linked to, you'd see that students and other drug policy reformers had great succuess participating in and affecting the outcome of last year's drug testing summits.<BR/><BR/>At the conclusion of the summit in Pittsburgh, the Deputy Drug Czar asked the audience of about 100 how many were thinking of taking advantage of the government's drug testing grant money. After a full day of students' hard work and education on the failure of drug testing, only four or five school officials raised their hands.<BR/><BR/>We made a difference. Other people can do the same thing at this year's summits.<BR/><BR/>The defeatist attitute expressed in your comment here (and most of your comments on DGD) is not at all helpful to our efforts to reform harmful and ineffective drug policies.LEAPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17658687931651891043noreply@blogger.com
