Cocaine on 94 percent of Spanish banknotes

[Mrs Behavin]

MADRID, Dec 24 (Reuters Life!) - Traces of cocaine can be found on 94 percent of banknotes in Spain, a country that has one of the world's highest rates of users, according to a study published on Sunday.
The 100 notes tested were collected in gyms, supermarkets and pharmacies across Spain, where increased affluence and falling street prices have made the drug more and more accessible.
Cocaine now sells for as little as 60 euros ($80) a gram, or 5 euros ($7) a line, and it is regularly used by 1.6 percent of Spaniards, up from 0.9 percent in 1999, a government report said this month.

or paper money at least. I always prefered straws to dollars, but it's been at least 2 years since I've done anything like that.

Stay away from the stuff myself, nothing against it, it's just a bad drug for someone with my mentality to do. A nice joint to chill out is better for me.
