What’s In Your Water?
Recent news out of the State of Minnesota reports that bong water is now classified as an illegal drug. That’s right, bong water.
Minnesota’s Supreme Court now says a person can be prosecuted for a first-degree drug crime for 25 grams (not milliliters?) or more of bong water that tests positive for a controlled substance.
Most of us are aware of the recent and serious news reports of prescription pharmaceuticals being found in drinking water throughout the United States.

Atryn – connection
ATryn is the brand name of the anticoagulant antithrombin manufactured by the Massachusetts-based U.S. company GTC Biotherapeutics. It is made from the milk of goats that have been genetically modified to produce human antithrombin, a plasma protein with anticoagulant properties. Microinjection was used to insert human antithrombin genes into the cell nucleus of their embryos. ATryn is the first medicine produced using genetically engineered animals. GTC states that one genetically modified goat can produce the same amount of antithrombin in a year as 90,000 blood donations. GTC chose goats for the process because they reproduce more rapidly than cattle and produce more protein than rabbits or mice.
