Hey Lemongrass-

Sheesh! I'm 2 for 2 on this one.

Again, a testy subject for me, not testy about the posters!

Around here the lingo for methamphetamine is "meth" and it is a huge problem in the midwest--I guess it's like cheap cocaine and I see people every day whose brains and lives have been destroyed by this drug. I am always a little on edge as MANY people with whom I have discussed METHADONE in conversation confused it with methamphetamine and gave me a weird look and have even said "that meth is so dangerous, just like crackheads people who smoke that stuff..." So, that's why I got a bit testy on that one.

As you should know, Lemongrass, I respect your posts and the things you have contributed to this board. I did not take offense or get angry about your quote...was just trying to convey my end of things...I RARELY have a problem with something anyone says and I will usually PM them if I HAVE taken offense. It just seems lately that my posts are being interpreted (or maybe I'm just not being as clear as I intended) differently than what I meant. In fact, I edited that post many times trying to be exact about what I was saying and convey MY experience with a particular group of MMT clinics. I definitely realize they may be different among different companies and/or states.

Can I crawl out from under my rock now, guys?
