%X At present there is a total lack of any moral or philosophical basis for the public attitudes towards the use of drugs in sport. In the WADA manifesto there is no definition of a drug - only examples. How can there be an example of something that cannot be defined? This leads to total confusion in the use of prohibited substances and the permitted use of other similar preparations producing almost identical effects. The whole area needs to be reviewed by an outside body with no vested interest in the outcome. Probably the Doping Journal, as it is totally independent of the vested interests responsible for the present confusion, would be an ideal vehicle for such a review.
