Well, if you think smoking it makes you feel better, then go ahead. IIRC, it's not as bad for your lungs as cigarettes, due to the absence of nicotine or the various poisons and carcinogens found in your average pack of smokes.
I'm still firmly of the opinion that in the end, the good does not outweigh the bad. Seriously. I have enough friends that have wound up becoming potheads. I don't need another.
Actually, in studies done using reasonable ammounts of smoke (some use enough to almost kill the rats), there has been no positive correlation between pot smoke and cancer, or any disease. In one study there was actually a negative correlation, showing rats exposed to marijuana smoke had something like a 2% less chance of getting lung cancer.
Not arguing pro pothead here, I just read an article recently and thought it was interesting.
That is interesting, I've always been curious to know just how much of the problems of cigarettes hold true for marijuana, as another smokable substance.
But it still doesn't change the dampening effects it has on memory and brain activity, especially over long-term use. You're smart, I trust you to do what you think is right, but I'm just saying, I figure it's safer not to get involved with it.
I'm just crackers about cheese!chatnoir782October 18 2005, 17:50:56 UTC
Nope! But if they put you in a maze could you find the cheese? COULD YOU?! Actually, if it gave you the munchies I bet you'd have a better chance of finding the cheese...
STOP NOW WHILE YOU STILL CAN.
