[edit] Disambiguating "Drug"

Perhaps the drug link should go to Drug policy reform.

Good suggestion; certainly makes more sense than approved drugs. I'll do that. --Craig Stuntz 19:27, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

Hmmm, the problem is that that article focuses on illegal drugs, and Balko's writing tends to discuss the blurring of the government's policy on legal and illegal drugs both. (E.g., putting doctors in jail for prescribing legal painkillers, medical use of presently illegal drugs, etc.) I'm going to change the link to War on Drugs since that article better describes the policies Balko typically writes about. --Craig Stuntz 19:37, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Frat

I don't see anything encyclopedic about the frat Radley was in in college, the information doesn't cite a reliable source, and he has requested on his blog that the information not be included in this entry. Binarybits (talk) 16:45, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
