Nothing to Snort at...

An interesting article that my Mother (of all people) just sent me...

Drugs in the Italian air are nothing to snort at

The ambient air in eight Italian cities has been found to contain low levels of cocaine and marijuana

i think this may be the answer to world peace:
elevated levels of psychotropic substances in ambient air worldwide

I wondered why I had such a good time in Italy...

It's mad that we're actually saturating the air with chemicals to that extent, although it doesn't surprise me too much; I remember when I was working in a bar in a fairly miserable small town and every other note that I took smelled of Ketamine or Mephedrone. Quite sad really

I wonder how many cubic meters of air one would have to inhale for a normal dose of cocaine from the ambient levels.
