Flaming/Flame Wars
Flaming is reacting to someone's board posting or PM in a hostile manner by publicly chastising the person or bombarding the person with nasty posts or PM's. Flaming may occur to users that engage in behavior that violates what is considered proper board netiquette. A flame war occurs when two or more users flame each other in an escalating manner that threatens to continue unabated. If you notice a flame war developing just notify the moderator or adminitrator and let them handle it. Do not take part in flame wars. If you do you will be banned even if you did not start it :-)

Re: Addiction Can Be Just a Click Away by S. Orr

Clifford Bernstein, medical director of the Waismann Institute, a Beverly Hills, Calif., facility that specializes in rapid detox, said an increasing number of patients tell him online pharmacies were their principal source for drugs.

"Four years ago my practice was almost all heroin; now it's 70 percent prescription drugs. I attribute that largely to the ease of obtaining these drugs on the Internet. With the Internet it is easier and, legally, it is safer," Bernstein said.

Addicts who use Internet pharmacies are often middle-aged professionals who can afford the high costs of buying drugs online, Bernstein said.

Bernstein -- who, as a pain physician, prescribes narcotics to patients -- said patients become dependent on drugs as the pain subsides. As addiction takes hold, tolerance develops and the drugs are needed for users to function and to avoid withdrawal.

"Once they are clean, these people do just as well off the drugs as they do on the drugs," Bernstein said.

The above quote by Bernstien sounds like he too is talking out of both sides of his mouth. If perscription narcotics and other controlled drugs are of no use , why does this 'doctor' prescribe them in the first place?????

Silly me, I just answered my own question. This guy prescribes the additicting drugs and then sends his patients to his rehab center for cleaning up.

This person is no doctor, he is a quack.
