good news. we need more states to do it, - and more people to protest when the Feds come in and prosecute sick people for using it despite California law.

Right On! as they use use to say.
I think it's wrong to have laws that people can't vote on. Forget Iraq, they should bring democracy to the U.S. !

Damn, got on a little soap box... didn't I? I need a joint.
