TOURIST 'ATTRACTIONS'

So Malcolm Duncan (no relation) says a survey conducted by Kings 
Cross Chamber of Commerce indicates the supervised heroin injecting 
room will be bad for the area and drive tourists away (Herald, 
January 19).

Of course, one of the area's great attractions at the moment is 
watching people shoot up on the street, toss their syringes on the 
ground, throw up, defecate, stagger and collapse. Not to mention 
listening to the constant wail of ambulance sirens racing to try to 
save the life of yet another overdose victim.
