My school was a much bigger alcohol place than pot. I tend to think that might be true for many high schools (though, naturally not all, as Jesse pointed out above) then and now.
I think in my crowd, it was probably 50/50 -- but I just remember getting liquor as being a production -- you had to know someone, or risk buying at the liquor store, or whatever. To get a dime bag you just had to ask whoever between classes.
Boffins = Scientists, in British.
Huh. Specifically? I always assumed it was more generically brainiacs, eggheads, etc.

What are people doing this weekend?
Sadly, no E. working-PORTFOLIO-working-PORTFOLIO-PORTFOLIO-cleaning the house for Mom's arrival-ZOMG PORTFOLIO is pretty much my life for the next 5 days.
In HS, we did a hell of a lot of drinking - full-strength Everclear was legal in AK then, and man did we take advantage of that. A lot of pot (you can get some of the best strains up there), and I would baby-sit my friends who were on 'shrooms or LSD. Cocaine and heroin were incredibly hard to get all the way up there, so only the rich kids or the truly screwed-up had access.
In college, my roommate and I did our fair share of E (OMG love- that is a dangerous drug as there was no downside I could see/feel)

The only kind of bad thing was not being able to get to sleep after (forgive my ignorance if that is what the seratonin trough is). But even that was kind of fun as I had company in my sleeplessness and we would get very silly.
