Hardly anyone smokes it with tobacco in america. Its an english / euro thing.
yeah i was kinda surprised to learn that there is so much mixing of tobacco and mj over there. like, i'm admittedly a smoker (yeah i know....i'm workin on it :oops: ) but i'm a lil grossed out about mixing herb and tobacco. like, it tastes so good on its own and doesn't burn or have that unpleasant odor like tobacco does. Why do people mix it in UK/Euro areas? Just doesn't seem as satisfying when blended when its real pleasant on its own. hehehe i guess thats like pancakes with butter and syrup vs with lemon and sugar :)

don't patronize me. you're combatting scientific studies with rudimentary understanding of physiology and ignoring all the facts presented.

do you ever catch yourself being really brainwashed or do you just go back to sleep when you get rattled

he could've had his foot amputated to stop the spread of his cancer. he didn't, citing the ridiculous teachings of a religion born out of anti-colonial resentment. he died when the cancer took over most of his body.

that is sad. but to reduce his life down to him being an idiot is pretty idiotic.

mind you he was a great musician

the thing about tashkin's study is it doesn't take enough factors into account. plenty of people who've led incredibly active lives and yet smoke cigaretes like chimneys - for instance, career soldiers - do not get lung cancer. other factors can limit or accentuate the negative effects of both tobacco and marijuana. to say one of them 'definitely causes cancer' or 'definitely doesnt' is ridiculous

Not at all, and I'm glad you used that comparison because that's exactly my point.. I don't get the same impression or have the same feelings towards someone who enjoys a cheeky pint every so often. I might if it was twice a day down the pub, or more.. that's the thing with smokers, when do they ever NOT have a joint in their mouths?

Anyway.. fuck it. :D
