By the way, I teach a somewhat similar senior course except that it is
limited to the United States and includes other drugs which I call American
Cultural History of Alcohol and Drugs.  I am also teaching it in a graduate
format this semester so look forward to picking your and others' brains
about the subject. I will pass on information about the network to my
interested graduate students.
