I assume the reason for their land up their is that they grow pot - the husband hasn't worked for 30 years except for a yoga studio that caters to a small handful of students - 2-3 day was my experience. It's probably a front for their pot growing business. Anyway, I have to endure the most bizarre attacks against me repeatedly that have all the hallmarks of paranoia. I am accused of scheming against them, talking to people I don't associate with, and all sorts of bizarre stuff. I get long rambling emails written in first, second, third person - they are so bizarre. At this point I can only assume that they are growing and smoking skunk pot. It is sad what is happening to these people - they have destroyed their business and the lives of many people they have come in contact with.

Sitting around getting stoned in your self defined world with its self defined rules and laws.. and when you all talk to people you are so boring, nothing we say has not been said or thought before so don't go believing your thoughts are unique. Reinventing the wheel is so tedious.We are only as smart as we are educted.No doubt you will have a take on my comments..bring it on wiseguys..

The guy DID NOT say his friend died of an overdose of pot. One of the symptoms of paranoia is defensive behaviour/denial, and you condoners of Skunk use sure have a huge dose of that condition..grow up, get a life and drink plenty of water to detox your brains...

It is not my intent to convince those deeply entrenched in the pot culture to quit using but rather to help those on the fence make an informed choice. See Skunk weed the Sequel.

Biggest crock of crap I've ever read. No legitimate physician will back this study because it's complete and utter nonsense. “KG, We’ve long suspected that cannabis is linked to psychoses, but we have never before had scans to show how the mechanism works,” said Dr. Philip McGuire, a professor of psychiatry at King’s College, London.”

There was a time I dident worry about others and then someone I loved died of an overdose… now I care every chance I get." Wow. You have got to be among the dumbest ppl I've ever encountered. YOu cannot od on pot. You would literally have to consume about 1k lbs of weed to od. Can you do that in one sitting? I didn't think so. Maybe if your dead loved one had chosen to not lace their doob with crack or heroine or w/e it is that DID kill them you wouldn't be so mislead as to believe you can overdose on weed. Stop slandering an innocent plant that humans have been using for thousands of years. Hell, it would still be perfectly acceptable to use if Big Tobacco hadn't pushed to make it illegal. Idiot. “Days of lighting up have passed for me. There was a time I dident worry about others and then someone I loved died of an overdose… now I care every chance I get.”

My reference to a friend dying had nothing to do with pot. It was in reference yo the writer stating I shouldn't care how people f*%$ up their lives. There is interesting new data about weed but I know that would have stopped me when I was using. If the data is correct we could save younger users serious damage if we could convince them to use moderately. Glenn, thank you for your comment.

I say that because nearly everyone on earth use one sort of a drug or another recreationally and have done so probably before we developed language to describe the experience. It would be best I think not to use anything at all though I'm not sure even of that. To say that you have a position against marijuana use because someone close to you died of an overdose is to show the kind of ignorance that prevails pertaining to drug use. Marijuana does not cause an overdose by itself full stop, this and along with all the other unsubstantiated claims made about marijuana causes our young who are intelligent to dismiss those that claim to authority. Of the recreational drugs in use in todays society I would like to see the disappearance of alcohol, perhaps before any other and marijuana would be the last on my list of harmful substances. Put that in your pipe and smoke it. Hello and a happy high to everyone.
