Cannabis- the most misunderstood plant on earth
". Here is what an America filled with open rather than closeted pot smokers might look like: a peaceful commons in which people get along despite disagreeing on all sorts of topics, a world in which folks look out for each other even as they have a good time. Hempfest and related festivals are stirring reminders that millions of Americans smoke pot and manage just fine. Judging from the government’s own survey data (which are based on self-reports and therefore probably understate the prevalence of drug use), more than half of adult Americans born after World War II have tried pot. The government estimates about 23 million people use it monthly, willing to live illegally rather than obey unjust laws."
awesome article. id like to go to hempfest some year. anybody ever been? Two Decades of Peace, Love, and Marijuana - Reason Magazine |

I saw a news report about a year or two ago in which an outdoor grow had been busted. To wrap up the story, they said something to the effect that it might take years to fix the environmental damage caused by the marijuana. WTF?

The one in Missoula is pretty fun. They sell a microbrew called Bongwater and it's like 8.2% ABV.
Not nearly as big as the Seattle one though.
