Ha ha, yeah alcohol is bad news, much worse that MJ in many ways. I have to admit though that alcohol is still my preferred drug of choice.

>On one hand we are talking about medicinal use of mJ which is a completely different ballgame than teenage chronic abuse of mj. The abusers are smoking a bunch of it when they don't need it, abusing it.

Yep..Also, while the brain is still developing at such young ages, drug abuse is more likely to have a greater negative impact.
