We could do that, sure. Do you have any reason to believe there is a connection?

The study referenced in the above article cited four previous scientific studies that "supported the cannabis gateway hypothesis of cannabis as a steppingstone toward abuse of other drugs".

Do you have one study that shows milk as a steppingstone to heroin use?

Smarta$$ troll wasting bandwidth and my time.

I'd like to know the percentage of heroin users who once smoked pot drank milk. That's an indication of where they get their numbers from. If the majority of them used to smoke pot drink milk, and we can reduce the number of pot smokers milk drinkers, seems to me that we'd reduce the number of future addicts, yes?

If it's a matter of the post user's addictive personality making it more likely for him to move on to another drug, then it's not clear that reducing post use would have any effect, since the addictive personality would remain.
