I don't like it. Even though it's not my cup of tea, I still look forward to any developments in this area with great interest. If they really find evidence that it works, I wouldn't be adverse to doing it.

Now, I'd be a REALLY happy camper though if they found out that a vodka martini could do the same trick!

It's not legal anywhere in this country and not likely to be for a long time, if ever.

I wonder if eucalypt leaves would do the same thing??

Here in Connecticut the law passed the House and the Senate, but Governor Rell vetoed it! Sigh.

I would love to see a federal overhaul on mj! I can't smoke it anymore...long story, personal choice...BUT...then again, wouldn't an advocate who doesn't smoke it...be a good advocate?

Legalize the stuff for the greater good! Sandy's Jim is a prime example of WHY it should be legal at a federal level! Why should he be limited to where he travels because he can't take his meds with him!

Alright! I'm glad there is a study out there showing that it can stop progression! Best of Luck to all the mj bills accross the states...
