"...such as the hippocampus." I thought almost every campus was a "hippie campus!"

Maybe they gained weight...

Interesting...

I remember a psych professor saying that THc interferes only with short term memory but that things only get to long term memory by going through short term first. He said that even then memories are not accessible unless we tie them to other memories. Very interesting to start to see some of the biology behind that.

I guess if you can't find your cigarette rolling papers, that's not a big deal. But if you do find them and can't remember what you're supposed to do with them, then you know you got a problem. But you'll forget that too, so maybe it isn't such a big problem afterall.

Alcohol is know to kill brain cells (actually kill them) and nevermind what it does to your livier.

Still, a little in moderation is supposed to be good for you.


Everythign in moderation I guess. I know from experience- TOO much pot is WAYYYYYYY bad for you.

I'm not sure about smoking pots, but I tried snorting coke once.

I almost drowned, and the bubbles really irritated my nose.
