In this area it was popular (and more or less available) until the late 70's. *Sigh* Those were the days. ========================================================================= From: phz@Cadence.COM (Pete Zakel) Reports of Thai Stick being dipped in opium are apocryphal. I know of no studies that verify that Thai Stick has ever been dipped in opium, and I suspect that these rumors were a result of people not believing that marijuana could be that potent unless something else were added. -Pete Zakel (phz@cadence.com or ..!uunet!cadence!phz)
