I saw that earlier, my mother even pointed it out because she knew I would be interested in one way or another, and it was a hard article to miss. I didnt get to read it all in the paper, but seeing that last part was surprising! I bet they will use a Cano in the study though hehe

You're right, it will probably be a Cano - definitely not a Toasty Top.

Since there was such a high usage of pot by Vietnam troops and Vietnam vets were the first to draw significant attention to PTSD, I wonder what could be gleaned from a survey of them.

It'd suck to be the guy who gets a placebo in that study.

All I thought after reading that was - Who in the fuck is on NIDAs payroll? Thats gotta be a sweet gig. (Maybe)
