Dan, although he did have a host of problems and did sing about some of that stuff there are a few things that don't quite fit together nicely.

yeah, but he was an addict, so 3 times as much for you or me would put us out, but for someone who uses all the time it's not that big of a deal. i'm sure as much as he used he already had some in his system.

Dan, can an addict really function at 3 times the lethal dose? I suppose it is possible to build up a tolerance but that just seems beyond the limit for anyone.
