Some people in the US do use the word heroine in reference to the drug. maltastar’s problem is that it puts heroine in the title and heroin in the article. Perhaps there was a change of shift.

[Daphne – In English, it’s heroin; so unless Maltastar is going to begin speaking about fanny-packs and pocket-books…]

Well I always thought heroin was the drug and heroine a female hero.

[Daphne – And you are right.]

This soap on the yacht looked like this but came in green.

Maltastar rightly spelled it as “heroine”. I checked with a reliable police source and it really was “heroine” after all. Actually “Heroine soap”, same brand as on the Jolly Roger. The police were duped again.

Here’s a link if you’re interested:

So it looks like you owe Maltastar an apology this time Daphne!
