WHAT HAVE POST EDITORIAL WRITERS BEEN SMOKING?

I don't know what evil spirit is getting into the members of the
National Post editorial board. First you suggest decriminalizing
marijuana ( "Pointless prohibition," editorial, Sept. 7, 2004) then
you support legalizing prostitution ( "Legalize the sex trade,"
editorial, Oct. 7). Both of these positions are extremely harmful to
our society.

For the sake of our young people we need to promote good -- dare I say
traditional? -- values.
