Al Queda and Al Capone: two peas from the same poisonous pod

I trust that everyone tuning in live! last night to hear Randall H. Miller speak about Islamic terror organization's involvement in the global drug trade found it fascinating - I certainly did. But if you were otherwise engaged, don't fret! Later today my technical guru, Dan Rotigel, will make it available in The Opium Den archives for download. You will want to hear what Randall has to say - a very bright guy. And be sure to follow him at RandallHMiller.com.

And speaking of bright guys, I just concluded my interview with Kris Krane. Kris is the Executive Director of Students for Sensible Drug Policy, better known on the street as SSDP. Like Randall, Kris took time from his busy schedule to share his knowledge and insights. We'll have my conversation with Kris available for download from The Opium Den archives later today as well. We've got Ethan Nadelmann from DPA, Allen St. Pierre from NORML, Danny Kushlick from Transform (UK) and Jack Cole from LEAP all lined up for this month. You'll want to hear them all - so turn on and tune in!

Stay healthy and high when it helps.
