      Hello moderator Dia,
      With all due respect, as moderator, do you feel that you have an
      obligation to be truthful ?
      If so, why do you continue to prevaricate about the legality of
      substances ?
      A truthful person would ADMIT that, unlike in the UK where you
      reside, laws vary from state to state, here in the USA.
      For instance, in the states of California, Arizona, and Virginia,
      certain herbs are legal for medicinal use, just like any other
      prescription drugs.
      If you wish to declare certain medicinal herbs becuase of your
      personal prejudices that's fine.   Fidonet rules say that you can
      make up any rule you want, and enforce it without any regard for
      truth, honesty, or fairness, that's fine.  In fact, Fidonet
      encourages moderators to be arbitrary and unfair because democracy is
      NOT a tradition that is welcome in Fidonet.
      But to do so on the basis of some patently bogus allegations about
      the law is totally uninformed or dishonest and beneath you.
      So why not be an HONEST TYRANT ?   Do you really want to portray
      yourself as a prevaricating burocrat ?   I'm sure you don't.
      Regards,
      Ty
