I lived in Harrisonburg on and off from 1992-1997, punctuated by a job in Northern VA. At that time JMU was a typical cow college surrounded by farmland with poultry processing plants (Tyson, Rocco Turkey in Dayton). The whole oxycontin-heroin problem was just getting off the ground at the time. Fortunately I was pretty far removed from all the bad stuff in town, living on a farm outside of Bridgewater and running my first BBS via modem on a FreeBSD box.<p>Now the drug problem in rural America has really gotten out of hand. There have been quite a number of meth labs, and crack and heroin have become a public health problem on the other side of the tracks.
