Well seeing that LP is posting info from a Canadian Web Site that discusses 
the same I can't see where you won't see the info if you looked for it. (Just 
like in a library)....

The above is true. In NJ they "confiscatred" at approx $227K home for the 
cultivation of around 1 dozen plants.
You car (used for facilitation of a "crime" (transporting illegal drugs) can 
be confiscated. (A lawyer was caught with a small amount of cocaine in the 
courthouse - they searched his car outside - found around 1 gram and 
confiscatd his car)....
Bank accounts etc also.

That is within the realms of the topic of this echo - please be aware that 
certain local, state and Federal authortites might consider this to be the 
distribution of "drug info" or some other "illegal" information.
Keep the subject on a "local" topic - don't get into DETAIL - anything else 
send private e-mail etc. I just don't want to get this into a "detailed" 
horticultural discussion, OK?
