I actually did know a couple of huffers in the neighbourhood where I grew up but regulating the sales won't do a damn thing. I'm waiting for the hobby shops to start carding kids who are building model planes. Sheesh- and they wonder why America is raising a generation of overweight couch potatoes.

You're from Canada you don't count ;-)

Yeah given the way the laws are going none of the hobbies I was pushed to as a kid can be done without your parents there at all times. Anything that involves glue better than Elmer's or paint is out, bunsen burners are considered drug paraphenalia half the time so forget the chemistry set, rocket engines are being treated like dynamite. So we get a bunch of bored kids that are already assumed to be criminals deciding to act the part. And we're supposed to be shocked?

Hah a long time ago when I was a kid the parents got me a model airplane for christmas and gave it to me christmas eve..I worked on that thing for a few hours. That christmas was the worst ever. I sure didn't like the feeling, and don't see what anyone could like in it and I didn't "huff" it...I was just glueing the plane together.
