Did you see the History Channel's "HOOKED: Cocaine"? It documents cocaine
and it's history and dangerous usage..

They very quickly made their point. They gave monkeys IV doses of cocaine
and then after a time gave the monkeys a choice of socializing with other
monkeys or staying alone and getting dosed with cocaine. The monkeys
preferred to stay alone with cocaine. Eventually the monkeys got to choose
between cocaine and food and they chose cocaine over food and eventually
starved to death!

YI-YI-YIKES!!!

Opposite extremes but similar excessses wouldn't you agree?
