                Amsterdam Holland Drug Classifications
               And Potential Model For The United States
               -----------------------------------------

Ultra-hard drugs: heroin, crack

Hard drugs: morphine, cocaine, phencydeline, methadone, pethidene

Medium-hard drugs: amphetamines, barbituates, LSD, psilocybin, mescaline, 
                   chemical solvents, absinthe

Medium-soft drugs: opium, hashish, khat, coca, tobacco, distilled alcohol

Soft drugs: cannabis, fermented alcohol, peyote, hallucinogenic mushrooms, 
            codeine, tranquilizers

Ultra-soft drugs: tea, coffee, chocolate

--------
Now, I think this is a fairly good set-up, but I have one problem with it:
LSD, mescaline, and psilocybin seen as medium-hard drugs, when peyote and
'shrooms are categorized as soft. Aren't the effects of the raw forms
similar to the effects of the extracted or synthesized psychedelics?
