When it comes to the controversy surrounding medical marijuana, an international team of researchers is busy stirring the pot by releasing findings that suggest the drug helps promote brain cell growth while treating mood disorders. Groooooannnn...

Odd, none of the marijuana smokers I ever knew showed evidence of brain cell growth.

Must be a variation of the old Cliff Claven alcohol theory:
"The human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, as we know, kills brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine. That's why you always feel smarter after a few beers." -Cliff Claven

*Obviously, this study (echos findings by Soros' Open Society Institute's "research") suggests that the 6million elementary school-aged children on a regimen of Ritalin usage, as ordered by Public School administrations, should be prescribed Marijuana instead of Ritalin.
Also, MJ-user Lab Rats with enhanced brain power will soon supercede the IQ's of their human research clinicians.
I've never smoked MJ so I cannot attest to its effects. However, I know that under MJ influence, the user is usually stupid, inert, lazy, silly, slurs, coughs, has dull reflexes, incoherent, delusional, useless, passive, semicomatose, etc. MJ could be tomorrow's SOMA*.

The DEA won't allow that. The studies might produce the "wrong" results.

Since it is illegal, I will not give his name. If you think I'm lying to you, ignore me, and proceed with your prejudices.

What is HU210? The guy says it's the most powerful cannabinoid in the world. It's also described as a synthetic compound. Does it contain synthetic THC or any other more recognizable cannabinoids?
