Anyway, the whole wording of that story just strikes me as being off. I mean Pat says she can't read when she's suffering with problems with her inner ear, yet that little write up says people are addicted both before and after dealing with that kind of problem. I don't think it was well edited...

Are always to be found between the hooves of horses
For never will cowards fall down there.'
