Oops. I guess I never hit save over at the ] page. Bummer. I've added something to the talk page now, but it's, like, not as good. Biggest problem was use of the term "deviated septum" which is something completely different. ] 14:00, 26 July 2005 (UTC) | Oops. I guess I never hit save over at the ] page. Bummer.

Modafinil
Perhaps you're right about Modafinil been widely different from cocaine, but as someone who used it in the past I assert that the fact still is that it produces some stimulative side effects. --68.39.79.43, Aug. 22 2005.
Hi Bk0,
do you have any special information (personal or published) why Salvinorin A should be different from kappa opioid agonists. Thanks, Cacycle 21:53, 6 Feb 2005 (UTC)
This is an esthetic or style issue, but in case it never occured to you, several of your changes to BSE turn active language to passive, concrete to abstract, narrative and chronological to atemporal and thematic. Such changes make the sentences look more like scientific literature but they don't actually increase the authoritativeness and I believe you end up communicating less to your reader. 68.221.1.97
- Thanks for your input, I'd appreciate it if you could give concrete examples of what you're referring to. From memory, the BSE article was disjointed and didn't flow very well. I tried to preserve the information as provided while giving the piece a more encyclopedic style. Improvements and constructive criticism of my edits are always welcome and appreciated. --Bk0 15:22, 3 May 2005 (UTC)
Methamphetamine
- There was no claim that gay men are more promiscious.
- Heterosexuals do not experience the sexual compulsion that gay men do on methamphetamine. This is due to the method of introduction of crystal meth into our subculture is tied in with sex. I am gay and I doubt that you are. This is not a bigoted remark.
- Gay men are experience a rapid rise of HIV and syphalis (which cannot be transmitted introvenously) becuase of methamphetamine use. ℬastique▼
- I have re-edited the section. The problem with sexual compulsion, which is not the same thing as promiscuity, has been amended to refer to gay and bisexual methamphetamine users. I have removed dirty needles once again because it's not pertinent to this paragraph. You can write a paragraph on HIV and Hepatitis C transmission if you like in which you discuss dirty needles. The simple facts are:
- An inordinate amount of gay and bisexual men are using crystal meth.
- They are experiencing a rise in HIV and STD transmission because of the "pig-sex" in which they participate while on it, and rarely from exchanging needles. Most gay men who use crystal these days are smoking it.
- I can cite many articles if you would like, as well as the rise in outreach programs toward gay men about methamphetamine and sex.
- No amount of sugar coating and pretending the problem doesn't exist will make it go away.
- Getting honest about it and telling the truth about it will make it go away. This is an article on methamphetamine. Leaving this information out is a disservice to the article, as well as to problem. I would like to see the problem go away, because I care about my community. Maybe one day I can modify it to say, "during early part of the first decade of the 20th Century, meth was a particular problem among gay and bisexual men; but now... I certainly hope so!

Dead Sea health claims
I noticed that you raised a flag on some questionable edits to the Dead Sea article in November of 2004. I agree, the claims do seem like bunk, especially as they are unsourced and from an anonymous editor. As you brought this up initially, I wanted to alert you that I intend to remove those passages, and wondered if you had any comment. --Dcfleck 15:50, July 16, 2005 (UTC)
- I have no problems with that. I would've done it myself but never got around to it. --Bk0 20:58, 17 July 2005 (UTC)
Please remove them. They appear a ridiculous blemish on an otherwise useful page.
Methamphetaseptum Nasal
Oops. I guess I never hit save over at the Talk:Methamphetamine page. Bummer. I've added something to the talk page now, but it's, like, not as good. Biggest problem was use of the term "deviated septum" which is something completely different. Osmodiar 14:00, 26 July 2005 (UTC)
