LL>Hi'ya All,

LL>someone, a Jane Kelly, who says she is a nurse, a RN, and who is
LL>fanatically against the use of marijuana - FOR ANY REASON.
Jane is a 68 year old nurse recently banned from HERBS_N_SUCH - and a
few other echos over the years. She doesn't respond to well-reasoned posts
or factual data. She only responds when you start name-calling, and she does
her best to goad you into it. She is fond of DSM - IV, the most recent
psychiatric manual, one which has received a great deal of ridicule from the
rest of the sciences community. She pissed off the moderator in Herbs
sufficiently to get the topic of pot banished for a while, and he's hard to
piss off.
My own advice is to counter everything she says with
documented and referenced data, and to ignore her completely. She pulls a
Harvard report that says pot is bad, I pull six that say it isn't.
She's been told repeatedly that NORML exists, and that if she wants to
take her anti-pot propaganda somewhere, here would be the place to do it.
She won't, because she knows she can't even begin to win an argument here.
Not that it's stopped her in the past ;-).
