The Archivaas generally became accustomed to Havenworlders asking what the heck was wrong with Humanity. Deathworlders asked the same question. In fact, all the alliance species came to ask it. Powers, even some _Humans_ came to ask it. In this case, Exhibit A was some found or recovered footage they had gleaned from the Hydrogen Line[1] or possibly found on a graveworld. The translated data contained two short videos. Public service announcements from the pre-Shattering era about drugs. One was about a substance called 'crack', and wanting to be cool, delivered by possibly the uncoolest-looking person in the known universe. The other was about all drugs apparently causing one's brain to be fried. Archivaas Thane watched in all seriousness, already familiar with footage like it. This was, more or less, her wheelhouse. PSA's of all kinds had been her preferred field of study. The various ways the people of the era chose to get the message across. These were, all in all, the least shocking of the examples Thane had seen. Once the viewing was over, Thane did her best to catalogue them and attempt a dating of their era. As for an explanation: "These were early attempts to prevent the populace from self-harm via poisonous and semi-poisonous substances," she said. "They were all addressing the symptoms and not the problem."
