[QUOTE="Hunter5117, post: 116670, member: 799"] I am looking for some help in identifying a book that I have not read in maybe 40 years. It is a scifi novel, author unknown. Main gist of the book is that the world's population has been reduced to a bunch of "worker bees" who do the work of the central government. They are kept under control through daily doses of mood suppression drugs administered as part of their daily nutrition. Food has been reduced to Coca Cola and "cakes" (Twinkies or the like). Alcohol and tobacco are extinct, but recreational drugs and promiscuous sex is part of everyday life. A small group figures out how to avoid getting their daily dose of drugs, and rediscover being human through PIPE SMOKING!!! (I know, maybe corny but sort of uncanny isn't it). After that the ending is sort of foggy, reason I would like to re-read the book. Also, may need to read up on the details in case BoB gets called on to save the world. If anyone has any idea on the title or author, it would be much appreciated. [/QUOTE]
