I am with you loantech. I never touched any other drugs for all practical purposes including alcohol. Never even kept it in the house. I just recently started drinking wine a bit. I read in one of my science magazines that retroale (sic) in wine slows cell death by 70%. It is the same chemical produced by fasting.

They have known for 100 years that they could double the life span of rats through periodic starvation.

The poker players knew that the great high stakes poker players who drank ended up playing 2/4 at the end of their lives the damage of alcohol was so great to the brain. But there is no evidence that pot causes any brain damage all despite the right wings attempts at movies like "reefer madness"-lol.

I have smoked on and off for almost 40 years and I can still play winning poker against the best poker players in the world.

Recently a blue ribbion commission to the prime minister of England recently gave pot a clean bill of health. It said people with mental problems and heart problems should not use it. It actually went on to say it helped strengthen the heart-lol. Pot starts out as a stimulant and then turns into a sort of tranquilizer. And I repeat I have never really even seen a serious argument by two stoners that I can remember.

With alcohol you just wait for the fight ot start-lol.

The report also said juxtapositioning pot next to the truly dnagerous drugs like meth was dangerous for society to do.

I told my girls to stick to pot if they had to do drugs when they went off to college. My older is miss goody two shoes so she was no problem and my other one does a little pot once in a while.

She told me a year or so ago I might have saved her life with my advice becasue everyone at her university was doing extasy, but she did't. That was when they were thinking extasy might cause Parkingsons disease.

Today in Alaska it is pretty much either BC bud-lol or Matanuska thunder fuxk-lol.

It drives me nuts to see people who drink be so sactamonious about pot. In every way shape and form grass (as we used ot call it) is much safer both to the individual and society.

And I get real PO'd when I think of our society putting nice innocent kids in jail for doing the same thing everyone does (get high) with a drug less dangerous than alcohol!
