> You know what's weird (and speaks for the maturity of this board)?> Of all the talk of Provigil, I've not come across that stupid media-induced hype about its use as an anti-sleep agent.

> Journalists are so lame. They're always looking for something novel, so when they hear about a novel drug they go crazy and think about all the implications it may have for pop culture. Not once do they ever stop to think some people actually have to use it for a legitimate purpose, and how that itself is important and note-worthy.

Good point. The next time one of those articles appears in TIME or NEWSWEEK or wherever, why don't you write a letter to the editor expressing what you just wrote here?
