41. Since it's true by so many orders of magnitude, I don't need them.
You can't seriously be doubting that a lower fraction of people who use alcohol have their lives ruined by it than is true of heroin, and if you're going to pretend to do so I'm not going to waste my time digging up numbers, or let that stop me pointing it out, any more than the fact that I don't have a citation for the fact that more people die of cancer than lightning is a reason not to point that out.
