I sense a certain romanticizing and ultra-liberal view-point on a certain plant, from certain members of this board...

I do feel the active substance should be allowed for medical subscripted use tho', like many other drugs.

There's sure to be a wealth of medical applications once somebody does some reputable research in the active substance. ( which is what, btw? can't be bothered to search)

There might be some truth behind it, but I seriously doubt that it happens in every case of marijuana related usage. Besides, doesnt everything these days have a link to a cause of cancer?

In other news. SMOKE UP WOMEN!

Always has, always will.

Biggest carcinogen out there - The Sun.

Life, Cancer. Only difference is the rate of cellular growth.

Preds, don't you mean "I can't be arsed to search?"

You don't want us to think you're losing your accent.

In other news, all of Emvee's illegitimate children disagree with this thread.

Hmm, ok. Sounds like this is something they haven't really confirmed in any way, so right now it's just a theory. Not much to speak of, since there's no other studies yet.

Also interesting that they specifically mention young men, beneath the age of 18, as in risk of catching this cancer. That kind of makes sense tho, since the legal drug, alcohol, should not be consumed until you're properly evolved either.

We'll see where this goes, but it's got me intrigued now. Anybody else wondering how they'll be doing the testing if the testies have cannabis-receptors btw?? Painful imagery comes to mind... >_<

Cyanobacteria have the right idea. I think I'm going to go find a glacier to trade amino acids under for a couple of billion years.

Wake me up when telepathy becomes a reality and there's no need or point to rubbish fake accents.
