The fact that a word which happens to be the street name for a drug is
considered "offensive" in this thread is completely ridiculous -
especially since it's glaringly obvious (being DRUMS) that it's
referring to a sound.  Lighten up, people.

Anyway, it's Loki's project, he can name it whatever he wants.  I'll
call my next project CrackCocaine if I damn well want to. ;)
