Compliments of the DEA, an intelligence brief for thier agents, on where drug precursors come from and how criminals obtain them.  Especially useful article for US Bees.  Interesting information on import/export, and canadian precursors.

The average purity of methamphetamine exhibits seized by DEA dropped from 72 percent in 1994 to 31 percent in 1999. The average purity of amphetamine exhibits seized by DEA dropped from 41 percent in 1994 to only 21 percent in 1999. Emergency room mentions and overdose deaths involving methamphetamine show an analogous decrease. During 2000, however, there was a slight increase in the purity of methamphetamine to 35 percent and a slight decrease in the purity of amphetamine to 20 percent.

Very interesting. Seems like the good old long HI reflux works much better than the oh-so-great bone-dry super-fast writeups preferred by certain bees.

I'm not fat just horizontally disproportionate.

Unfortunately, the majority of the meth they are referring to was still cooked by mexican gangs by way of HI reflux;  it was just cut more as the cartels get greedier.

in GOV papers, instead of safrole itself.

That's exactly what's happening, obviously, at least where I am from and people don't know it. At least, around here and I am sure it applies all over the U.S. Example- around here, people think if it comes in a rock it's cool then.
