Cannabis harm worse than tobacco
The impact of cannabis is worsened by how joints are smoked.

Hiya Mischief - oh yeh, i remember now, and EXERCISE is good for you!
Lies. Try telling that to Michael Watson
Interesting article, Mischief, and it sounds to me like exercise was critical to his remarkable improvement?
Oh yeah so it was. D’oh. Wrong article! I meant to put in the one that included him getting his brains mashed up. When do you go back to Kuwait?
First we celebrate my Mom’s BD and I take care of business here - don’t I make it sound all business-y? Actually, it is Seafair Week, the weather is gorgeous, I get to see lots of old friends and . . . the weather is gorgeous, or did I say that already? Hmmmm. . . . gorgeous vs steamy? gorgeous vs steamy . . . .
Dang, no need to rub it in! UK weather makes me go grrrrrrrrrrrr….
Seems to me the UK had some very strange and severe flooding this summer. . . do you think that is more global warming?
Yeah definitely. It could also be karma if you want to look at it more metaphorically on a global scale. Global warming seems more likely to me though…
