QUESTIONS BEFORE THEY'D PARTAKE

Editor:

I am a teacher, and I discuss street drugs with my students, ages 17
to 25.

They have made it clear their greatest fear about what is purported to
be ecstasy, LSD, marijuana, etc. is that they don't know exactly what
is being offered to them. It could be innocuous. It could put them
into a wheelchair. It could put them into a coma. It could kill them.

Together, we came up with the following:

What am I putting into my body?

Do I know what's in it?

Will it make me happy?

Will it make me crappy?

Will it make me lazy?

Will it make me crazy?

Will it make me cry?

Will it make me die?

If I didn't make it, or the government didn't check it, I won't take
it!
