The scene with McNulty judging his swing that hit the pillar and then trying to redo it is my favorite The Wire thing.

No the Columbians underpay the Greek on the chemicals used to make Cocaine out of Coca leaves.

Oh, okay. That makes a little more sense. But still, I can't imagine that process requires more than some simple solvents, maybe some strong acid/base, and at worst some distillation. Doubt it requires going international. Beside which cocaine almost never comes into the country unprocessed. It's grown in Colombia or Bolivia or someplace, processed in the country next door, and usually cut a couple times by the time it's shipped to the consuming country. Importing coca leaves themselves is impractical for reasons including the sheer bulk of it.

Just how many chemical factories do you think there are in Columbia?

Okay prolly some, but what im trying to say is that when youre getting tons of chemicals for you illegal drug smugler ring. You probably just take what cheap chemicals that you can get especially if you trust the dude youre getting it from to be effective in his business, cheers.

Drugs are produced in Columbia or Afghanistan and then they are shipped into Baltimore, thats why the harbour (aka. season 2) is even related to the rest of the series holmes. The Greek imports and sells in wholesale.

Greek is basically the connect, if you know slang.

Ah I just got confused since they show him buying the chemicals to make drugs as well. If not for heroin what are those for?
