This message came to JSC through other sources. I realize that it is not Shuttle-related, but it is of concern to parents. I have deleted the forwards on this message. If true, this represents another sick attack on our children. Roger.

HOT!!!   HOT!!!    HOT!!!

1.  ***WARNING TO PARENTS: For ALL of you who have children... regardless of
their ages.  A form of Tattoo called "BLUE STAR>" is being sold to
school children.  It is a small piece of paper containing a blue star.  They
are the size of a pencil eraser, and each star is soaked with LSD.

2.  THE DRUG IS ABSORBED THROUGH THE SKIN SIMPLY BY HANDLING THE PAPER.
There are also brightly colored paper tattoos resembling postage stamps that
have the pictures of the following:  Superman, Mickey Mouse, Clowns, Disney
Characters, Bart Simpson, Butterflies, etc.  EACH ONE IS WRAPPED IN FOIL.
THIS IS A NEW WAY OF SELLING ACID BY APEALING TO YOUNG CHILDREN!  THEY ARE
LACED WITH DRUGS!

3.  If your child gets any of the above, do not handle them.  These are
known to react quickly and some are laced with STRYCHNINE.
