Ah...now I see, Sandy...exposed to Mad Cow. That explains a lot! You know I'm just joshing you. You know this is said with a gentle elbow to the ribs.

The main point I wanted to make was that up in Oregon and Washington it was recently announced on the news that people who used marijuana, even with a medical MJ card, were being denied access to the organ recipient waiting list. Not sure of the "logic" in this. Sounds like if one needs a kidney, liver, or any organ transplant and has used marijuana, either legally or illegally, is denied.

Doesn't make sense to me. It's not a state law thing. I think it's a medical community thing. An HMO conspiracy? Who knows? Another instance of big brother deciding what's best for us, I suppose.
