I didn't see this link listed:

www.medicalmarijuanaprocon.org/

This site presents in a simple, nonpartisan pro-con format, responses to the core question "Should marijuana be a medical option now?"

Great thread IT + Rep thanks for the links!!!

Didnt look at all of them yet, but is there one that CLEARLY states the "grow laws" for Cali citizens?? Ive seen it on norml but Id like a statement I can print out and put up on my walls, this is what they recommend at the clubs for legal growers to do.

[giagemgal]

After getting to work in a clinic for a year, (i left because of my illness) I may have some valuable information and can add a personal touch to your research paper.

Cheers

I am also happy to announce that we just swept the USA's most public medical marijuana strain review, the Oregon Medical Cannabis Awards, organized by Oregon NORML. The OMCA is a double-blind contest where patients score barcoded entries on potency, medicinal effect, taste, aroma, appearance and smoothness.

For the score breakdown, check out Oregon NORML's website:

just saw this today feel free to check the legitimacy not that i deny it in anyway

^ It's bogus.

Please, Delete or edit post.

The number is...

This number is one of many numbers created by the novelty-number company Humor Hotlines.

What this number is NOT...

1.Not A total scam.
2.This number has no relation with any political group or marijuana advocacy group.
3.Not Endorsed by any politician, political group, advocacy group, or any person/group in a position of political authority.
4.This number has no deadline.
5.The number has no more power/authority to legalize marijuana than any other petition created by people online (however, every bit helps).

fyi...Though some have claimed to have received charges after calling this number, it must have been coincidence or confusion because the number does not appear to create any charges (though if you can prove to me it does, feel free to contact me).


call your congressman instead.

very informative, thanks! (wonders why there is no thank you button instead of me having to write it to show my appreciation)
