JK>Get your head out of the fog created by the smoke from the stuff and

JK>drug that causes a lot of misery to many people in this nation.
Again...I've been clean and sober for 1 1/2 years. For you to attack me 
in such an unjust manner indicates YOUR psychopathology not mine. 
The subject was/is Marijuana as Medicine....this is the ALTMED echo. 
Now, if you'd like to discuss this rationally I'd likewise be interested 
in doing so. 
Marijuana IS effective as a anti-nausea drug...smoking, instead of 
Marinol pills, IS more effective...because it is delivered in an 
immediate manner (inhalation is second only to injection for speed of 
delivery). Also, Marinol is apt to over-medication...and that medication 
is often too late for anti-nausea. As for producing the effect of 
inducing hunger...inhalation by smoking is also more effective, for THC 
(only one synthesized ingredient of marijuana, which is NOT a hunger 
inducing canibanoid) is NOT effective.
I've stated to you before...that I have experience with my dying mother-
in-law with said effects. I DID NOT partake.
Now, if you can be nice and civil, let's debate.
And NO it is NOT a NOXIOUS weed...out to kill the kids and society.
thank you.
