I've cut my use back big time. Mainly due to having to do a medical for my new job, and they are more rigorous with the testing at the site I'm on now.

I can have a few cones on my first 2 days of r 'n r then no more.

As well as my BP going up enough to have to increase the dosage of one, I have noticed more niggling pains in; my knees, my shoulders and my back. Never had any issues with my knees, even when running 200k's a month.

Coincidence?

Finally, we are seeing a common sense approach to cannabis.
It's been over 2 years since the poll started... maybe the 2-5 year option will be the winner?

I wish the interface allowed multiple poll questions, e.g. not just predicting when something will happen, but whether voters want it to happen, etc.

I can't read it, they want money.

I like your contributions in this thread K, but heroin and cannabis are about as similar as Nuclear warheads and water pistols.

Yes, agree they're very different. As are recreational drugs and prescription medication (with the latter not necessarily safer than the former). And so on...

Is "vaped" pot something that can be done nowadays?

Update: I found a new (5 Dec '18 ) article on the latter topic at https://www.futurity.org/vaping-cannabi ... 1925032-2/ . I'll return to it and possibly post on it later.
