    He certainly considers himself informed. Maybe he is, but he is hardened on this. Very ‘my way or fight me’. How odd for a cannabis consumer or advocate... There seems to be a great deal you leave out, that is specifically keyed to personal assessment of fitness to perform, that also...

    Driving whilst high

    I know this has been and could again be a hot-button topic, and I don’t want to kick it all up again, but I do have thoughts. Laws govern behaviors that generate injuries. Traffic laws are adequate to our needs in regard to the specific topic of driving. Stacking cannabis can happen either by...

    Driving whilst high

    The bulk of my comments in this thread are a ways back, and I stand by them. That said, I make it a rule NEVER to get high *while* I drive: operating a vehicle for me requires remaining on a level, not chasing new ones. You’re *driving* goddammit, pay attention. Quit crossing the streams!

    I’d have to go hunt things down and refresh, but the gist of what I learned about a coil outfit would apply to the induction method - which is that it can’t be rigged up in a way that’s useable - too many connections, too much hot metal, suddenly too many moving parts. You could rig it for...

    Advice on making a tincture

    I wasn’t happy with this when I wrote it but couldn’t figure out why, but then I did: The water will carry flavor components and other compounds you might not like, *and* it will greatly reduce the strength / potency of the mix, so it makes sense to minimize the water, to make it easier to...

    Advice on making a tincture

    Hey, truth seeker! I have no experience with using MCT; technically, a tincture uses alcohol. Also technically, an infusion in vodka would pass. There are drawbacks to a plain infusion, chief of which is that the vodka is typically less than 50% alcohol, which means more than 50% water...

    Fluxer Heaters, induction heaters for Dynavap

    I love the esthetic of wood - but for my uses, I couldn’t be happier with my FD: durability, portability, function, performance - adds up to a dependable unit that’s a pleasure to own and use. For a larger, less mobile unit, like the MF, I think wood could work well with the original metal...

    Holidaze Sales 2019: Whatcha Gonna Do?

    I’m sitting it out again this year: although money’s not so tight, cartridges are all I can get at a relatively affordable price (flower is $15/g for sticks and shake, when you can find any)...and while I would love to buy a dependable source, that’s not really on sale. My cartridge game is...

    How To Stop Smoking Cannabis - Weed Is A Real Addiction

    I am truly sorry it comes across that way. For what it’s worth, I truly believe the point is crucial to understanding. I will not argue the addictive capacity of cocaine, except to say that I had enough. I had friends who were dealers, I had all I wanted, for free, for months on end.... And...

    Is this propaganda?

    So now we’re splitting hairs over the distinction between insignificant and marginally significant? To what productive result? Are you arguing that this “marginally significant increase” in potential risk is significant *enough* to be a tracked factor? Why downplay the *significance* of the...

    How To Stop Smoking Cannabis - Weed Is A Real Addiction

    And you bring “psychological addiction” back in: addiction is not psychological. I want to be more clear: the distinction between physiological adaptation (addiction) and behavioral adaptations (habituation) is fundamental both to understanding addiction and to understanding behavior. Like...

    How To Stop Smoking Cannabis - Weed Is A Real Addiction

    Could easily be; and I’m aware my German skills are not up to helping. In English, “addiction” has a precise meaning, but is sloppily and ignorantly misused generally. One effect of the misuse has been to wrongly “medicalize” behaviors that can mirror addictive reactions. This interferes...

    Is this propaganda?

    I think it was the “/=“ that threw it. As I understand him, he is saying that an only marginally significant association would rule out a significant increase in risk. “Statistically significant” frequently means “barely out of the noise”, as in this case.
