Ok. I'm hiding here in plain view, under my real name. But I don't think my Mum lurks here. So yeah, I spent several years - including most of the 1000s - continually stoned also. And I very much do not regret it...
I too functioned pretty well. But I didn't go out investigating any murders. In fact when I went out and had had a few joints, with good solid friends of mine who were very much on my team but were not smokers, I even found it hard sometimes to 'maintain' with *them*!

I dunno what Vermont hydroponic is like, but next time I'm on the Eastern Seaboard I must call in with you, Joe, and discuss the matter in detail.


Cheers, Joe. We need more of you on this list, ya slacker.
