I've already acknowledged your brilliant victory in Nevada

If the anti-drug war momentum were not gaining, the issue wouldn't come up in any state for any reason, like the lack of efforts a decade ago. As it was, a suprisingly sizable percentage of the population supported the measure. Only through direct, personal intervention of the drug czar and a lot of public money did it fail.

Yes, it came up in Nevada and despite the full court press by your side went down to utter defeat. Currently it's on a local initiative in Columbia, MO...being pushed by the same crowd that's leading the anti-war demonstrations out there according to local Freepers who have been counter freeping them.

With this momentum you folks should have a drug free state in 20-30 years.
