Look, back in the good ol '80s there was nothing wrong with
using Amphetamines.

It was fine when Cyrille Guimard put Greg on a program of
Darbepoetin / Stanozolol / Methamphetamine when he started
riding for the Renault-Elf-Gitane team.

Laurent Figon is the one to point fingers at. I really don't know
why people aren't talking about him anymore, what's with that?
