"Heroin and cocaine (crack being a form of cocaine) are useful drugs."

I don't know about heroin, but when I broke my nose and the doctor had to rebreak it he fill it with gause soaked in cocain. I was really shocked and kinda scared because of all the negative press that the drug receives. I never again had an urge to go buy an 8 ball and go crazy. I never even wanted to give it a try when I had the opportunity. I have seen people on it and I just can't see the thrill. Of course the dosage was medicinal rather than the street dosage a recreational user gets.

Cocaine is used as a topical anesthetic in some very delicate surgeries.

Heh. It ain't about you and what cocaine does/doesn't to you.
