tolerance and withdrawal

From the news bureau of Weird Universe comes reports that the United States Air Force has been forced to recall hundreds of tubes of promotional lip balm due to trace amounts of tetrahydrocannabinol in the hemp oil component of the salve’s ingredients.
Though airmen and family members that were potentially exposed to this reefer madness at an Alaskan base were not at risk of getting even a mild high from this tiny, tiny amount—nor even risked showing up hot a drug-screening, although some argue that lip-balm can become habit-forming and lead to dependency—it would not have been in keeping with the armed forces zero-tolerance policy nor in the spirit, I guess, of the office and service that this give-away was endorsing—the Sexual Assault Prevention and Response coordinator, otherwise known as the installation SAPR.
