Yeah, Greg. Didn't you know that? TC has become the accepted standard for drug treatment. Right now, Daryl Strawberry is in Phoenix House somewhere outside of Gainsville or Ocala. I read somewhere recently, prolly stuffed it into the archive, that DFAF is pushing federal legislation to mandate TC as the only approved (or the favored, I can't remember offhand) treatment modality for juveniles.
And here's a kicker for ya'. You know how GT, SAFE, AARC and Fr. Mantooth, et. al are always claiming to be a kinder, gentler Straight? Well the WFTC rejected Straight's membership application on the grounds of human rights abuses.

I think I saw that bill posted at the congressional website. It is scary. Euphemisms have become the bane of our society. I propose an ammendment that would make euphemisms in new legislation unconstitutional. Yeah and after that passes how about the inclusion of brainwashing as a terrorist act.
