> "I grew hemp" - George Washington

* Thomas Edison constructed the first electric light bulb out of hemp. The Pony Express stage coaches were made from hemp.

* Not only did George Washington smoke hemp, but Paul Revere, Patrick Henry, Samuel Adams and Governeur Morris did too. The Declaration of Independence was made out of hemp, and after they all signed it, they smoked it.

* The real reason hemp is illegal is that the military-industrial complex, the Republican Party, Haliburton, Microsoft, the Boston Red Sox, and the entire state of California stand to lose Trillions!
