You know something???

According to the 2003 National Survey on Drug Use and Health, more than 12 million Americans age 12 and older said they had used meth at least once in their lifetime--a 156 percent increase from 1996.

Sen. Joe Biden (D-Del.) said those numbers don't approach the levels of marijuana use in the U.S., but meth's effects are much more dangerous.

"This is corrosive," Biden said recently. "You send a cop to go bust up a marijuana-smoking party, they walk in, show their badge and everybody goes, `Oh, OK.' You walk into a meth lab, you'd better be prepared to be shot, you'd better be prepared to have at least three officers with you to take one [meth user] down."
