Compassionate doctors are being lynched to justify the peculiarities of twisted people. These OxyContin witch trials are making suffering for American pain patients worse than the Drug War already has. You can bet the pontificating politicians and DEA agents advocating more restrictions on prescribing pain medication will find the strongest drugs available when they need them! Pain control needs to be loosened across the board so regular folks can get it when needed. We cannot now - I can vouch for that. Dave Michon Eau Claire, Wis. - --- MAP posted-by: Beth
