For the same reason Russian Roulette would be a dumb example.
Well, no. Russian Roulette does not provide any benefits for the player. This is not just my opinion, it is an inference from the fact that so few people actually play the game. However, a lot of people do lines. There must be something in it. And it is not without merit that some argue that the primary damage done by (illegal) drugs is due to their illegality, and not their pharmacology. In any case, there are places where it is legal to do drugs. If Jay were at such a location, would he take the opportunity? Jose -- "There are 3 secrets to the perfect landing.

Neither do drugs.
That is an opinion, not a fact. Many people find that (illegal recreational) drugs =do= provide a benefit. That's why they take them. There are those that say personal flying provides no benefit.

Is that why they call it RUSSian roulette? (ok, I'll go sit in the corner) Jose -- "There are 3 secrets to the perfect landing. Unfortunately, nobody knows what they are." - (mike). for Email, make the obvious change in the address. |
