"California NORML to raise its estimate of the number of legal patients in California to over 150,000 as of November, 2005..."

That's a 150,000 out of how many million pot smokers? California has something like 30,000,000 people and according to SAMHSA's 2003 numbers better than 11% of them will smoke pot in a given year and about 6.5% of Californians will admit to federal government workers who come to their homes to having smoked it in the past thirty days. There are millions of pot smokers in California. That 150,000, if it is anywhere close to accurate, is probably less than 5% of those in California who smoke pot.
