Pointless? Hardly.

All I ever hear on this board is how marijuana is so great for glaucoma -- almost like there is no other treatment.

And nausea! I'm getting nauseous myself thinking about how many times marijuana was touted as the only cure for nausea in AIDS patients and cancer patients on chemo.

Glaucoma, nausea, glaucoma, nausea, blah, blah, blah.

So a report comes out, and lo and behold, marijuana is being used to treat pain. Whoop dee do.

If you haven't heard about its use for pain, you haven't been paying attention---that has been noted in a number of threads here (threads in which I seem to recall you posting, in fact).

Provide evidence that marijuana has been cited by any FReeper as the "only" cure for ANYTHING.

The whole point is that drug advocates like MrLeRoy do not understand addiction, or he is in denial. I would hate for my pre teen nephews or nieces to read his posts.

For all the fans of the 17 year old drug abuser Jedi Girl, how will you feel if you read her name in the obitiary (sp) column? Would you even give it a second thought?
