       What the HELL are the extra characters?  Inform your sysop that his 
system is regurgitating garbage all over the net.
       Anyway, no.  The stone doesn't last much longer than 24 hours, and it 
can be argued that the entire episode is over in less than 12.  Drug tests do 
NOT detect the actual THC, but metabolites of it.  THC is broken down fairly 
rapidly, but the metabolites hang around for up to 30 days. (both metabolites 
and THC are fat-soluble, and your fat tissue does absorb both - so it is 
actually improper to say that *no* THC is present in your system).

       What stupid people do not recognise is that there is a WORLD of 
difference between a substance abuser and a user and someone with a 
legitimate need.  (and, in some cases, legitimate need IS the attitude 
adjustment brought about by pot).  In any case, need and want are two 
different things, as are users and abusers.
