I'm pleasantly surprised that this article still exists at all after our descent into "BBC Hades". However, I'm curious...is it still unfinished, or did they "moderate" the sections on psychoactive use and other such topics?

Hey Rangerjustice long time no speak I am afraid it still isn't finished It almost is, but now I am going through it, updating it for our bright new, BBC, politically correct, future. I have to finish the War on Drugs section, I still have a couple of cannabinoids to write up (what they do etc.), also I have added a section on decreasing civil rights and have to put in the stories of Todd McCormick, Peter McWilliams and Steve Kubby I also have a glossery section, but that may too much work and I might just drop it The main reason it doesn't look much different is that it is so big I cannot upload it, it is almost 150Kb in plain text - which comes in at about 40 odd pages long. Once it is done I will have to email it to TPTB, and get them to put it in for me But almost there, I have a couple of friends proofreading the finished bits - so maybe only a month more (touch wood) Well, until later.....

Well, I wish you all the best luck finishing up. As you may have guessed, I'm not a fan of the BBC policies which now govern this site, and I have to wonder how badly they'll rip up your finished product. But, maybe it'll all work for the best...guess we'll just have to wait and see!
Adios! (translation: goodbye) ranger justice

My thanks I must admit, I am fairly worried about what is going to happen to it However, I think and hope that the moderation will be relaxed as the site gets older. As it is all new and sparkly, the mods are all new and sparkly, and hopefully time will knock off some of the rough edges. The thing that bugs me is the 'no URLs in fora' Grrrrr! and all I can say for that is geddafu yabassa Until later....

You might want to add that cannabis only flowers when the day/night cycle provides at least 12 hours of darkness. Erm.. someone, er... once told me...

The Entry above has been moderated out, and though I can guess why, I would like specifics - as I am writing an Entry on this subject. So what is it that has been deemed so nasty and evil for us to read, that it would warp our narrow little minds? Until later....

You're fighting an uphill battle here, Crescent. Our brave new "moderated" world is not a friendly place.

The real test comes when the Entry is finished and submitted. What they do with it will shape my views, finally, on moderation. At the moment, in politicospeak, I am cautiously optimistic Until later....

I cant belive they let any of your
entery survive, I have lost
quite a few posts recently some
of wich I think were because they
contained drugs stuff. The stated
offencive content as the reason.

Strangly the Cannabis Entry has lasted more or less intact, however the one on Amsterdam was moderated away (at least until I raised some noise Turns out that a part on Kadinskys Coffeeshop, mentioned the smooth, Orange Bud and that was all it needed to get pulled. Had to put up a link to the bbc faq on cannabis (and a complete bag of shide that is - giving Keith Hallawells opinions as facts. Grrr it makes me angry just thinking about it.
Glad you liked the Entry, most of it is offline - and almost finished Thank you for the support Until later....
