Here's an article I'll pay attention to, it's from the American Cancer Society, not wikipedia. I've copied/pasted a key paragraph, in case you don't feel like reading the entire article.

"This is the first [epidemiological] study to examine whether smoking marijuana increases risk of head and neck cancers," said Zuo-Feng Zhang, MD, lead author of the study and member of the Jonsson Cancer Center at the University of California Los Angeles. "Most people don’t think about marijuana in relationship to cancer. The carcinogens in marijuana are stronger than those in tobacco. The big message here is marijuana, like tobacco, can cause cancer."

On Federal Cannabis Patient to Lead Medical Marijuana March

Posted on August 27 at 12:46 p.m.

AShaw, what do you mean by "it's just not healthy"? Anal sex? Sex outside the bounds of marriage? I can see that this upsets you, and I hate to be the one to break it to you, but just because something is different than what you're used to, or what you deem is "right", DOESN'T MEAN IT'S WRONG. It's just different, and that is OK.

loonpt-

If you had an article that wasn't from wikipedia, maybe I'd pay attention to your comments. Anyone can write anything they want in a wiki "article".

On Federal Cannabis Patient to Lead Medical Marijuana March

Oh and sa1, the column is called "Gay girl, straight world," so she's going to talk about... being a gay female. Makes sense to me. Also, if she'll let me speak for her, she's not pushing anything on anyone. She's writing a column about being a gay woman. She didn't get into details, she didn't get dirty, so you need to get over yourself and realize there will be gays in this world no matter what, and they have every damn right to talk about their relationships, just like you do. If you don't like it, get your own damn column.

If you don't want to read it, how about... don't read it? Simple as that! And Penny, as always, fabulous column. Don't let the homophobes get to you, and of course, I know you won't. Brilliant as usual. We love you gay girl!!

You're doing wonderful things for this community PP, and yes, baby steps are OK. Slow and steady wins the race! Any chance your column will ever be weekly?

On The Indy’s Gay Girl Hits SBCC

Well, I went to SM, experienced the block schedule, and I absolutely loved it. Let me tell you, there's nothing more frustrating (to a student that actually wants to learn, as opposed to socializing and such) than having the bell ring, your teacher takes attendance, you go over homework and questions, the teacher presents the lesson plan for the day, everyone gets settled, the teacher teaches, and then 20 minutes later it's time to pack up and get herded off to the next class. I learned so much while I was at SM, and I truly believe I excelled due to the block scheduling. Criticize all you want, but the block schedule makes sense, and unless you've been a student there, or you have a child that is in fact a student there, you really have no ground to walk on. Go Royals!

Wonderful column, as usual. Let's get out there, and help change the message!
