I was reading National Geographic, and they did an article on the cocaine dealers down in Columbia and everything. Everyone is wearing rubber boots. Why is that?

They do? Guess I could see it in the labs to prevent getting all over their feet where it could get absorbed through the skin. Or to prevent any sparks around a volatile or dust-filled atmosphere.

once i read that the people who 'stomp' on the coca leaves in the pits while they add gasoline and other additives to the product....well, obviously it eats away at their skin/feet....those who are severely addicted and just stomp barefoot actually loose alot of skin into the product and it becomes part of the product itself...people are litterally snorting and smoking these freaks feet!! that's my guess anyways....
