The problem with all of this (wow, I've gotten this thread way off course. Sorry) is that once the trend begins it's very difficult to stop or even slow it down. Not to mention the nearly-unobtainable hope to reverse it. The fact that there is so much drug advertising worries me for society in general. And the fact that every one feels they need a magic pill for every tiny, minute thing that ails them - or that might ail them - shows that society has really fallen victim to the hype.
Sometimes the real answers lie right there, within our own grasp. We just fail to realize what we are capable of.
