Now, I may be just a kid, and not know much about Lewis Carroll, but I really think that no, he didn't do drugs. B/c to my knowledge, they didn't have too many drugs back then. Opium, no doubt (refer to the Opium wars between China and Britain) but other than that....I don't really think so. Is it really that hard to imagine someone having the creativity to come up with poems like "Jabberwocky" or stories like "Alice in Wonderland" without using any kind of stimulant? This isn't some anti-drug thing or anything, this is just trying to make a point. Coti said that some band said that Carroll/Dodgeson used drugs? That was probably a cheap commerial trick to get more people to listen to their songs or something. (Whoever the hell they were; I have nothing againgst them.)Don't believe everything that people say. I applaud the people who have their own opinions and this is mine. Thanks.
