Absinthe was Re: HERB - HERB Queen Ann's Lace, and many other things

<< Absinthe, if it existed in period at all, was probably late period. It was
the
 acid of the nineteenth century. It causes madness and brain damage. It is
 banned in all the industrilised nations, but I have it on fairly good
 authority you can still get in in the Bahamas, so somebody's still making it.

Absinthe is also still made and sold in some parts of Spain/Portugal -- a
travel magazine this spring chronicled a couple's search for it -- and the
local attitudes toward it.
