Thanks for this Vrae. I'll have to wait until it's available on YouTube or something though!
The MMJ thing is a very interesting debate. I've read a lot about it, and it's hard to sift though the evidence because the whole subject is shrouded in a cloud of hippie-phobia, fear and suspicion. I suspect that in common with many drugs, when widely available it causes a lot of physical and social problems among casual users - BUT it can be beneficial in a medical setting when used for particular conditions.....such as neuropathic pain....like.....for instance.....CRPS....
It's biggest problem is that it was first and foremost a recreational drug (used by a negatively-viewed social group) before any medical benefits were realised - so its use is associated with all those negative social stereotypes. Making it available to everyone on the street was never going to improve the situation long-term, which is a shame. If the medical community had started its use, we wold not even be having the discussion - MMJ would just be another prescription drug that also had a criminal street value and use.
Personally I would like the chance to try it for myself legally. I don't want to have to smoke it, but I'm interested in the drug itself and it's reported neuro-pain benefits. There's just so much social stigma attached to it though, that I can't see it happening. When your (effective) drug options are so limited, and traditional painkillers are as effective as Smarties, not being able to explore something like MMJ properly is a tragedy.
Just my view
