Am I the only one who has noticed that many posts get large numbers of viewings but very few coments?
Is it that we all find each others coments boring?
Or is it that most people on here have nothing to say?
Your coments please.

and there seems to be very little argument. debate , argument or total slagging off is usualy interesting. back slapping agreement gets boring. and if people disagree with you it tends to sharpen your mind.
The problem with having a board full of drug users is that drug-users by their nature follow the crowd and and peaceful (non-confrontational). This means that anybody asked advice gets it given, and anybody giving an opinion gets (fundamentally) people aggreeing with them.
This does not lead to great threads, so the little itty-bitty threads get pushed to the bottom, while the pointless threads (am I an E head) stay up their forever.
Also, because so much about the drugs that we take is not really known (different people say different things) people are afraid to express their opinion (see above : following the crowd) in case they are shot down by some-one with more respected findings.
Anyone think different?
and now i've forgotten .........yea so lets not worry to much if theres only stoners in here. chill out in the opium room.
talk about reality now and again.
my house is slowly begging to look ok again after my onslaught on the place and that cheapo solid has me flexible.
go on meat !
But, if I were too - I would have to point out that cannabis can turn you into a killer:eek:
Look!
Woman who killed father 'driven mad by cannabis'
The Times - July 17, 2002
A WOMAN who beat and stabbed her father to death had been driven insane by “heavy and regular” cannabis use, a court was told yesterday.
In a crime which appears certain to renew concern over last week’s decision to reclassify the drug, Ann-Marie Pyle inflicted 85 wounds on her 77-year-old father Bill, using several knives, a poker and a walking stick.
.......
But Teesside Crown Court was told that two psychiatrists who examined her after the killing concluded that she suffered from acute paranoid psychosis triggered by her abuse of cannabis.
.......
Mr Justice Holland jailed her for life after hearing that her mental illness had since been resolved, but that the risk of a relapse would be greater were she to smoke cannabis again. He recommended that she serve at least three years.
......
“This was aggravated in later years by the abuse of cannabis. Two experts prepared reports. One said that she was capable of extreme violence. He said that her use of cannabis caused an acute paranoid psychosis.
“Another expert said that the killing was the result of mental illness which was now resolved but, in the long term, it was conceivable that if unsupervised, she could return to cannabis use and the risk could increase.

comments please?
Edited to say: yes the date is 2002 NOT 1902 as you expect
isn`t it funny all these stories come 2 light straight after a Class Downgrade.... why ever did the journalists not dig em up b4 :rolleyes:
Maybe the anti-drug posters have realised that there are more pro-drug posters on this site than anti, and that they are not going to pursuade 90% of those looking to to agree with them, so they have fucked off? The Site is brilliant, the best around, but you've got to admit that most people using "The Drug" section use them and like them

I would think they are like the Politicians, they (the Papers) only think of those who are reading them, so they are bound to create scare stories so that the readers can keep on misbelieving that cannabis is dangerous. I think if you smoked +10 J's a day, every day, you would be doing some damage, but no way could anyone persuade me that weed is more dangerous than alcohol or tobacco
