Munch-O-Meter


Government runs nation's only legal pot garden
By Mike Ahlers and Jeanne Meserve CNN
  • Beakers of marijuana await analysis at the Marijuana Potency Monitoring Project.
Here, in what could be called the Fort Knox of dope, Mahmoud ElSohly waits patiently as an assistant unlocks the stainless steel door to a climate-controlled vault



Once inside, under the gaze of security cameras and a blinking motion sensor, another scientist pries open the lid of a large cardboard barrel, opens a large plastic bag and digs his hand into the vat of meticulously manicured marijuana.



We are in the Coy W. Waller Laboratory Complex on the campus of the University of Mississippi, getting a look at the only legal marijuana farm and production facility in the United States. This is the government's "cannabis drug repository."








I think the governments are going to permit the use, so
that the People stay stoned & don't realize what they are doing or not doing ?



Yes, we have been HIGHJACKED 4-Sure




Can your Car run on `Pot ? I wonder, or maybe it just makes U think it can ?
Any way, it would be a `Trip.



*Don't do drugs `Ok, Just say `NO ~NO





This Thread has gone 2 `Pot : )
4-Sure

Noticed this weekend that the price of alot of Items went up at the Grocery store. When
fuel costs spike - the items at the store rarely go back down too! I think this is going to hamper (for a while) any recovery we were going to see economically. Companies just pass cost on to consumer -- but consumer is going to hold back on non-necessity items. So...

Ha I can barely afford to drive...I have a 55ish mile round trip to school everyday now & on average use 2-3 gallons during that trip so my parents have had to step in & start giving me money for gas since I can't work right now bcuz of dumb school. & personally I have no faith in the leaders of this country, I believe it's all a game
