This week we have a double entry from the other side of the world: Families and Friends for Drug Law Reform is an Australian organization of parents and others who have lost loved ones to drug abuse, or have seen friends or family members with drug problems suffer needless additional harm and degradation because of prohibition. Drug Aid is a site created by FFDLR activist Patricia Assheton and her late son Guy Wayne Tremain, "dedicated to promoting understanding and providing practical help NOW, while your sons, daughters, sisters and brothers still live." Visit FFDLR and Drug Aid at http://www.wps.com.au/druglawreform/ and http://www.wps.com.au/drugaid/.
