Arnold Layne Posted December 27, 2001 Share Posted December 27, 2001 BUT I thought they said they had not had time enough to do any research........ I don't want to sound rude, but really, what are these people on? It's such bad methodology when they produce these lists. What they really should do is put it side by side with similar lists for Pharmaceuticals, caffeine, baccy and booze! Now when you put these things together the weed list looks like Mother's Milk! Cognition problems with long term use? Oh, please - this was washed out years ago when US researchers did extensive tests and research into long term heavy use (up to 14 grams a day) amongst traditional Afro-Carrib Rastas. Come on you British scientists, keep up and follow the plot! Good grief! In fact, that research demolishes quite a lot. If I can find it, I'll try and post more about it here...

Guest THE PUFFER Posted December 27, 2001 Share Posted December 27, 2001 We all know that it his highly unlikely for anyone to experience all of those advantages/disadvantages....but as everyone is different, there may well be someone who will suffer from anything on those lists. We will not know until controlled experiments on a national scale are implemented...or they ask some of us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
