I have 2 degrees and I smoke my self retarded every day. It was also proven to not impair drivers abilites significantly.

http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif Latest word is it helps prevent cancer, too. (http://)

You can even avoid 99% of the carcinogens by vaporizing. I just bought a vaporcannon and im awaiting my next oz. cant wait!!!

http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/nono.gif Read my link, bro. You don't need to vaporize. You'll be missing out on all the beneficial (that's right!) qualities of the weed. I'll try to find the results of a recent study that concluded smoking pot reduces your chance of getting cancer. Not just lung cancer, either - all cancers.

http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif But then the vaporizer will get you ridiculously stoned on a wee portion of pot. Have fun with that new toy!

Im talking about the butane from teh lighter

BTW I found the volcano for $449 shipped, you cant find it anywhere else for less than 539 (so if anyones interested). But I went with the vaporcannon ($175) to see if i even like it in the first place.

May be you are the one that needs to lose your inhibitons, grow up, and look at the facts.

Stop listening to the d.a.r.e. bullshit, and look at what SCIENTISTS are saying.

It doesn't harm you, it helps prevent cancer, it causes certain brain cells to thrive; it's a safer recreational drug than alchohol (by many, many times). Seriously; you are the one that needs to grow up. http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/plthumbsdown.gif

That's all fine and well, but until my well paying job creates policy that says it's ok to smoke weed and I can keep my job, then it's not even close to worth it.

Here you go torque, read this: http://www.maps.org/mmj/pr5.02.03.html

People always forget that all these supposed benefits come with MODERATION, just like withy alcohol, yes one drink a day can help lower blood pressure blah blah bl;ah, but drinking more and more just gives you liver disease.

I'm sure weed in moderation could be helpful to some, but let's face it...potheads are not traditionally the most motivated productive people in society. And there is yet to be a LONG TERM study on the subject.

I met a girl at my oncologists that cant deal without it. She is terminal so she is "allowed" to use it. She is only 32 and knows she will die within the next year http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/disappointed.gif She told me that the stuff she gets "sucks" so her dad goes out on the streets to get her the "good" stuff.

I added nothing but this thread reminded me of her http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Government marijuana is notorisouly low in THC, which explains why it sucks. Higher the THC and cannboids, higher the effect, good stuff would be indicas and rastas. Gorverment stuff is dirt quality sativas.

750Devil, your focused on the stereotype, you couldnt spot allot of heavy MJ users by looks alone. Many, many, many high socitey figures smoke all the time and no ones the wiser. I use to be a cop in the military and still look like one for the most part, nobody outside a close group of friends know I smoke, and im a very productive member of society.

Marijuana is not pyscially addictive, its mentally addictive, like masturbating, and just like masturbation if you quit you wont have any withdrawls, just be bummed out. No one has EVER got lung caner, or overdosed on marijuana. LOL i try though!

Really? Do you lie on the floor in the fetal position with cold sweats, arms shaking and blurred vison thinking suicidal thoughts? Or do you just get really horny and want to put it to anything that moves?

I could care less ... I'm living quite comfortably and I've never had to use drugs to achieve the goals I have obtained today. If I want to develop new neural pathways or stimulate my brain, it's amazing what reading a book can do or taking a hike through a new path can do.

Hey some people need religion as a crutch, others need drugs.

I find that i do alot of things better when im high. I play guitar better. When i go bowling high, i bowl better. Sometiems when i get high i get all motivated and clean my house. I still go to work M- F, make an honest living, and i keep my smoking private, if you met me, you would never know that i smoke.

I'm not saying i need to do it, but i enjoy it, and have yet to have any negative effects on my life from using it, other than it makes me eat more, and costs money.

It didn't say it cured laziness. Some people are natural bums.
The study clearly stated HIGH doses, not "moderate", so put that in your pipe and smoke it.

I'm taking a bong rip in light of the good findings. Then I'm gonna go teach my children how to use the bong.

To prove what? That i coudl quit if i wanted to? I have stopped for extended periods of time. Thats like saying quit watching TV for 6 months. Sure you could, but why bother?

ya im not a fan of the argument quit for 6 months.....i smoke almost daily, but i also drink milk everyday, should i stop drinking milk for 6 months to see if i can?

oh and maybe it doesnt impair driving....slow down your reaction time or anything, but when im roasted i cant pay attention to the road, so ya i might be able to get out of something or stop on time if i could actually pay attention to the road but i cant, so i dont drive stoned

Any kind of non-oxygenated air in the lungs is bad...so I would imagine that yes, pot smoke can cause lung cancer, but believe what you like.

I hate driving stoned at night because i think every car behind me is a cop. Also when its raining out. For the most part i dont drive stoned.

Although i've definately done way too much drinking and driving, that is something im not proud of.

bottom line, i love to smoke and a lot of others do, and a lot of people would never smoke. It doesnt make a difference what you do as long as you do what makes you happy right?
