    If your job is dependant on you having a driving license and you a) Have a bottle of vodka on the go in your van/cab b) have a few pints the night before and get pinged in the morning your still just as much sacked.
    You haven't carried your analogy through to it's logical conclusion though. If the authorities (in this case the Police) caught you over the drink drive limit, the punishment (in this case the length of driving ban and possible imprisonment) handed out by the Magistrate would be entirely different dependent on the amount of alcohol consumed, whether you were aware of being over the limit,the amount of times you subsequently admitted to doing so, and many other extenuating circumstances. When it comes to driving, Alcohol is not a performance enhancing drug though, so the example does not really fit.

    The two distinct punishments may seem entirely arbitrary until you take into account the fact that if Larry were to be given 6 months for each admitted breach he would soon tot up a sentence of 6 and a half years. Instead, despite the fact that he admitted cheating for 6 year,s he was only given a four year ban. With a BSc in Pharmaceutical chemistry he could hardly claim ignorance.
    Of course he couldn't. Last I checked you can get Jack3D in health food stores... Not too sure the same can be said about EPO

    Reading, comprehension and logical thought are different things.

    You can read, I'll give you that much.

    My point is that it's hard to buy and use EPO by mistake.

    True and his trainer has that opinion and let him go. Enzo is pissed off with him for taking that weight loss supplement.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
