Italians like the blow

Cocaine residue in Italian water reveals more users than official estimates

The levels of cocaine residue in flowing water in Italy suggest that many more people take the drug than official national estimates previously suggested. A study published today in the open access journal Environmental Health reports on a new tool used to measure the levels of a cocaine by-product excreted in urine, and present in rivers and in flowing sewage water. This new method provides evidence that about 40,000 doses of cocaine are consumed every day in the Po valley - according to official estimates for this area, only 15,000 users admit to taking the drug at least once a month.

so apparently when you blow coke, you piss out a funny chemical
and they decided to measure the amount of chemical in the sewer
so thats friggin awesome
