No - which part of "the article" did you not understand? Click the link and do a search, lazy.

Not laziness. I do not typically read through entire articles based on science that has been dumbed down for lay people.

More claims from you with no supporting evidence supplied. Dog bites man.

Of course, in this case, the evidence is readily available to anyone who can do a keyword search in the PubMed database. From 1960 to 2002, there were fewer than 10,000 articles returned on a keyword of "marijuana." From 2003 until the present, over 20,000 articles have been published. I'm not going to get into an analysis of the article topics other than that they all have keyword "marijuana", but the bottom line *is* that the evidence is mounting.

I've never claimed it's benign and have stated the opposite; shame on you for such low tactics.

Um, yeah. You have vociferously denied any negative evidence about the effects of marijuana use, every time the subject comes up. Even on this thread, where I challenged your implication that a mechanism observed directly in rats does not apply to human biology, it was clear that you are still trying to promote that marijuana is benign.

Are you a spokesperson for NORML, by any chance?

"Adolescent cannabis use is associated with behavioral changes related to reward and motivation in humans. [...] It is not known whether adolescent cannabis use causes either of these responses, or if cannabis use is rather a symptom of a pre-existing state that results in these behaviours."

The evidence is mounting that there is not a pre-existing condition

So every one of those 20,000 articles says there is not a pre-existing condition? Or by your personal daffynition, does sifting through 20,000 articles mean "readily available"?

you are so quick to dismiss the growing body of experimental evidence that shows pretty definitely that marijuana use is not benign.

Actually, you haven't said anything to anyone on this thread about that subject. Your mind's fabrication of self-serving memories explains a lot.

it was clear that you are still trying to promote that marijuana is benign.

I do not claim benignity by pointing out that the posted article says it is not known whether adolescent cannabis use causes behavioral changes related to reward and motivation. Your desperate attempts to smear me speak volumes about your position.
