- Hello everybody,
-
- I promised to send out this list I have, with well known people, using
- n2o (nitrous oxide) as a drug. I am sorry, but this list is somewhat
- Anglo-saxon-oriented, but what can you expect? The original list was
- published in 'The book of lists' by Wallechinsky et al. And it gives
- also lists of famous people usingcocaine, hash, morfine, LSD, mescaline
- heroine and opium. If anyone is interested, well, let me know or buy the
- book. It is a bit old, but still as interesting as an old 'Guiness book
- of records'.
