Yea, I can already see the day when resident hall baskets contain condoms and Plan B (with a note saying that Plan B will likely give you horrible mood swings and cramps from hell so you'll want to try a condom first ;P). Heh.
It's really the photo-ID thing that gives the lie to "insufficient scientific evidence". A hell of a lot of things are sold OTC that say "don't give this to kids without a doctor's approval" (full-strength Prilosec comes to mind) that don't require a photo ID. Hell, even Sudafed can be gotten without an ID even though you need to go to the counter to get it (thank you War on Drugs). No, this is an 11th-hour compromise so the head of the FDA can keep his position without betraying his political allies, nothing more or less. Buddha and Jesus (and a host of others) warned us about the people who are so blinded by righteousness and/or greed that they can't see the suffering they perpetuate in the name of God. . .
