True that. I don't understand (physiologically) why alcohol is socially and legally acceptable, whereas marijuana isn't.
Politically it makes sense (look up the history of DuPont, and cotton v hemp growing), but surely that isn't still having effect, unless BB's Thought Police are bigger than I thought?
