I am involved in getting this MJ on our ballot this coming fall. There are ways of using MJ without smoke at all! There is something called a vaporizer. If this law passes, and allows this state to be for Medical MJ., I will try it in this way. I don't want the harmful part, the smoke. In fact, if they removed the THC, that would be fine with me too. From all that I am reading on the subject, it does provide a measure of relief from pain. Good to talk about this subject, as the laws will begin to change for most of the USA in time. ginnie
