And of course you may or may not know the big drug companies are currently scrambling to put a synthetic vision of THC on the market.

Would it be a THC pill or something? I think I'd rather have the real thing.

This is already out there, but I'm with you on having the real deal.

btw, Dr's Cheech Marin and Tommy Chong preached this long ago, prognosticators that they are :cool:

I don't think it's available to the general population. Prob cancer patients and the like only.

Sorry, you are all still going to get cancer and die.
While marijuana advocates will surely praise the discovery, Desprez explained that it's not so easy as just lighting up.
"We used injections in the animal testing and are also testing pills," he said. "But you could never get enough Cannabidiol for it to be effective just from smoking."

You must not have smoked when I met you at that show because you didn't mention it at all after I did. Funny, cuz on here you're like Jeff Spicoli. Confused, that's all.

Well, that was 2.5 years ago. I didn't regularly back then, just when offered by friends. I do regularly now, have for the last year or so. It's not that confusing.

The pill is definitely available. My wife is a nurse and has had it prescribed for several of her patients.

The pill is called Marinol, the only FDA-approved synthetic cannabinoid. Like many of you, I tried to cure cancer, too, on a few occasions. Maybe I should put scientist on my resume. Although, the only researching equipment I had was made out of a pop can and the laboratory was a Firebird.

In related news, cocaine eliminates being sad.
