You're right, I didn't look at the chart closely enough. I still think that the chart is custom-tailored to produce a specific result. The data is supposedly deaths that are "directly or primarily" from these substances. How many 'direct' deaths from caffeine do you know of? More people have probably died from electrolyte depletion from too much water than have died even indirectly from caffeine.

Of course the chart is skewed to get the desired results.

I only posted it to see what Illbays' reaction to it would be. Of course, he dismissed the statistics.

Which makes the point, no intelligent discussion can be made on this subject. It polarizes everybody. It is like the creationism/evolution issue. Everybody has a stand and will defend it to death.

Somebody a couple of posts ago said that the pot substitutes are legal in every state. Thats wrong on many levels.

If you work in an industry where drug testing is mandatory, you had better not be taking the substitutes.

As I said, I have glaucoma, and I use the V.A. as my medical insuror. I talked to my doctor (not because I wanted the drug, but to collect information on it) about the pills, and she told me 2 things. There is no reliable studies on the effects of THC on galucoma because the federal government will not allow studies to be done. And 2nd, the V.A. will never, ever, allow perscriptions for THC.

Oh, well, nuff said on the subject. I have wasted enough time today on it.
