    Not that it makes any difference. I have a BS in Mechanical Engineering and an MS in management as well a five semesters of meteorology. I have had math up through differential equations and considerable courses on thermodynamics. I have my specialties and you have yours. In spite of your claims, yours do not impress me. What impresses me or depresses me is what you say here.
    Show me one study that supports your claim that it is beneficial. There are hundreds which say just the opposite.

    First off, calling you out wouldn't take balls. Second, I have no reason to call you out. I am curious why you thought I did.

    Show me a single study that shows general use by young people is beneficial.

    I generally favor mj for medical purposes. It is like many drugs. It has beneficial uses.

    Still waiting for you to cite references showing the dead bodies piled up in the US states that have legalized Mary Jane. I never asserted you argued in favor of legalizing narcotics.

    When I was in college, learning General Relativity for the first time, when it was still quite confusing, I remember smoking a bit of my favorite herb and then laying on a water bed with a young lady, and noticed how our depressions in the waterbed mattress, caused us to be drawn together, almost as if we were magnets being drawn together. Suddenly General Relativity made perfect sense to me.

    Apologies then Sir, I had inadvertently assumed, perhaps from your chosen user name, that you were making a statement about those of us posting an admission of, <gasp> being fans of marijuana on this thread. Seems like a reasonable assumption given your choice of words in this first quote here. Please do correct my interpretation. It seems a bit untenable that you are arguing in favor of those opposed to legalizing mj.

    I have an entire stoner culture to support me. The Beatles, The Stones, two decades of the best music that still is blowing Glenn Miller away.

    One of my siblings has smoked heavily for 2 decades. He also started his screen and aluminum business, 2 decades ago. He has 5 FT employees and a sales manager and made over 300K last year. Drives a 60K truck, has probably over 100K in toys, such as swamp buggies and atvs, Harley, boat, half a million dollar home and property....not bad for a pothead.

    Show me a single recognized medical study showing that mj is beneficial to young people. You insisted I provide links. Show me yours. Otherwise, as you say, it is all just bullshit.

    You had asserted that another poster might be LE which I took to mean Law Enforcement. I then posted how threads like this amaze me hoe people will rat themselves out. Are you high now? I can't see how confusing my post was.

    Once I had read in an anti marihuana propaganda piece, that smoking marijuana caused one's blood pressure to rise. So we tried it. A bunch of us got together and took our blood pressure and then got really high, and took our blood pressure again. And then we laughed about it. It used to be also claimed that smoking pot causes psychosis. giggle giggle. I guess that is how Donald Trump, the president of low expectations, came to be called a great president. Or even competent. The psychosis, I mean, not from marihuana consumption. Sure, it was a perfect call. Sure it was.

    Yeh mon, I am stoned as a Van Morrison track. Of course LE means Law Enforcement. I have no fear of LE. Is that really what you meant? Did you wanna quote the full context of the post? I was questioning his background in child developmental studies and offered a speculative opinion that he seemed more of an LE oriented kinda professional. To which I've received no response.

    And you do then admit that I was the inspiration of your post? Bold aren't you?

    Of course not. That is one of the symptoms of too much use. Denial.

    To an extent everything is all bullshit. I have smoked marijuana - a lot. Have you? Again, what is your level of education? Since you assert that I am brain damaged? You got nothing.....
