Yeah, I mean, wouldn't that be the humane and nice thing to do, just be honest and open about your opiate prescription policy?
You may attract a few junkies initially, but I am also convinced that 97% of trained doctors know how to spot one. ....and then send them to a Bupe clinic!

I'm not romanitcizing junkies, and I'm not promoting drug use, but I am saying that drug addicts are not filthy low-life scourges, criminals to be spat upon, either. They have a problem, they need help, not harrassment and ostracization..

Boy did I go beyone the scope of the matter here. Sorry for that! But I enjoyed it.

PS coming back to earth, I will try the tap water for a while. I mean, yeah it's disgusting tasting (I understand from my wife and her family that most Americans are so used to the taste of the water here, they don't notice the weird taste.

) But hey, I do use it for brushing! Two to three times daily!

ps let's end one myth right now...
Europeans have GREAT teeth and wonderful dental care on the whole.
The Brits, ehhh, well that's a different topic, folks.
But European dentistry is less obsessed with the cosmetics (straightenting, scraping, whitening) and deals more directly with decay, tartar, and serious dental problems). That's why a perfect white Hollywood smile, after years of orthodontics and scraping, cleaning and whitening, in Holland is referred to as an American mouth.

Me, I'm actually enjoying mine, though - when it works, these days!
