"Cocaine is a stimulant, so it can raise the body’s temperature, make the heart beat faster and stave off feelings of hunger."
"The effects of crack smoking are virtually immediate, peaking for about two minutes and lasting for only about 10 minutes. For snorted coke there is a slower time to peak but the effects still don’t last that long (around 20-30 minutes)."

It's complete chaos here in Clerkenwell. There's bits everywhere, nothing works, I honestly don't see how such extensive damage can be repaired
I might revert back to the version in SVN and start this refactoring again now I've worked out how not to do it

Apparently the shopkeepers in Thorton Hearth have boarded up their shops, emptied them of stock and fled with the residents.

Reminds of the Kula Shaker S.O.S. By kula shaker lyrics, cough:
It's 2 o'clock
Blood transfusion, revolution, satellites on Mars
Man became the spawn of Satan, driving 'round in cars
I read the news but the news didn't fascinate
I stayed at home, watched the media ejaculate
This is the age of 'Decay' and 'Hypocrisy'
Sometimes I feel like the world isn't ready for me
Every time I turn, a microscopic worm is telling me, he's it
Dressed in the robes of cosmic ego, crawling 'round in [Incomprehensible]
I read the news but the news didn't fascinate
I stayed at home, watched the media ejaculate
This is the age of 'Decay' and 'Hypocrisy'
Sometimes I feel like the world isn't ready for me
