I've noticed discrepancies both when is comes to understanding what the half-life of a drug actually means as well as incorrect half-lives of certain drugs being misquoted (particularly when it comes to "long acting" vs. "short acting" benzodiazapenes). For most of the old-timers and experienced here: this is probably old news and there's probably already a thread or two about this (although as I said: some of the inaccuracies and incorrect information I've seen on a few threads when it comes to withdrawal I found rather concerning). And for new members: this information may be worth something (most only read the first two or three pages of topics on a forum and give up or move on and/or refuse to use the search function).
By the way: there's also some pretty interesting and useful links that show up on the top right hand corner of each page.
For verification purposes here's a table from Prof. Ashton's Manual:
