Drinking/Drugs
No. Tobacco is more addictive than heroin, and I've known people to kick a heroin addiction before their cigarette addiction. I've been able to smoke cigarettes in moderation for over 6 years (probably go through a pack once every two months). So one cigarette every three days (it's more like no cigarettes during the week, and then if I go to a bar I'll smoke three in one night). Now that I'm out of college and will be drinking a lot less, I'll probably be smoking them even less than I already did. Now each drug is different in how it affects different people, so maybe heroin would be the drug that I couldn't resist, personally. But I believe I could probably do it once a month or something without any worry of addiction. I don't, though, for fear that that drug WOULD be different. Plus I am no longer in college, and I won't be doing any (illegal) drugs anymore anyway. I'm genuinely curious to see if you could actually do this.

This post sounds so... wierd per-say.. per se*, also not a very good usage of the phrase... On a somewhat related note, bad grammar and spelling annoy me. But it's not most people's fault; it's the awful education system.

What error is it giving you? Be specific. You'll also have to be more specific about exactly what kind of books you want. Python in particular?

Political Poll
I can sympathize with the TP to some extent - they see obvious problems but I think by and large they propose very misguided solutions. I don't particularly consider the american left much better though.

Political Poll
This is true, around one in three youths carry knives on them and Glasgow as well as some northern cities have some truly appaling figures for knife crime. However, the UK also has one of the lowest youth homicide rates in the world. Recently it's "tripled" as the Telegraph put it, but arguably that's because numbers were low to begin with. The homicide rate in the UK is relatively much smaller than the appropriate figures from the US; in 2009, just three out of 52 states had a lower homicide rate than England & Wales. It's something of a red herring when people try to compare British gun control laws and apply them to the US anyway. British gun ownership was never as widespread as it is right now in the US, particularly amongst poorer social classes which, perhaps ironically, experience higher levels of crime. It's a totally different culture. Anyway, this can be discussed in the upteen gun control threads OT has seen over the past few years. I'm just pointing out just because gun ownership is restricted in this country, it doesn't mean people go around stabbing people instead necessarily. Yeah a couple things with this. First - even if people resort to other weapons, they aren't nearly as deadly or effective as guns. Hence the lower homicide rates in england and Canada. Second, if stricter gun laws were to be applied, the best way to do it would be to tighten the laws on sales, and let the people who have the guns already die off. Make it illegal to sell guns unless you're an authorized retailer (so prevent people from selling them on craigslist or w/e), and make it illegal to leave certain guns to heirs.
