Digital Drugs
At the GNU Public Dictatorship we are nothing if not cautious, but even we were skeptical when we read about what Oklahoma News 9 is warning parents about. No organization has the stellar anti-drug record that we do. We have fought drugs and drug trafficking for years, and it was our efforts that practically brought an end to the practice of using brads to distribute hallucinogenic substances "below the radar". We thought we had fought every form of drugs, until we, too, learned of iDosing. It seems that certain tracks with nonsense music are purported to alter mood and produce highs similar to real drugs. After our board meeting we decided to try these tracks, but could not achieve more than a slight headache. What the Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics warned about, though, is that these music tracks may be the gateway to real drug use or to harder digital drugs. It seems that our experience (no discernible high) is the rule rather than the exception, and that disenchanted iDosers turn either to real drugs or to the hard stuff, like Steve Reich. Our experience also bears this out, as I have become dependent on at least weekly doses of Mr. Reich's music and have trouble functioning without it. We urge all of our supporters to take this warning seriously, and to avoid digital drugs with the same fervor you avoid annoying songs on the radio. If you experiment with it you may live to regret it!
