Summary
This article speaks of a tiny device that functions as a drug lab. Drop saliva or blood into this device, and it tells you whether the sample contains a drug such as cocaine or heroin.
Police, of course, love the idea, but I'm curious: is it so sensitive that it will give false positives to nearly everyone due to the fact that more than 90% of all U.S. currency is tainted with trace amounts of cocaine? Technically speaking, everyone possesses some small amount of cocaine.
