Me thinks you took Chris' article a bit too seriously.
: regarding article of 3/21/02 about spiderwebs
: spun by doped out spiders...
: is your metabolic system, your biological
: makeup, your neurotransmitter system, etc.
: the same as that of a spider?
: if it's not, i would not let these pictures
: affect your drug use judgment too much.
: by the way, the same goes for rats. which i
: hasten to add, most so-called
: "studies proving marijuana causes
: brain damage" use for subjects.
: except for the one they did in the 1980s
: using monkeys hooked up to machines which
: caused them to inhale marijuana smoke.
: someone at the lab, it was found, didn't want
: to take the time to do the study right, or
: perhaps, wanted to skew the results. so
: he caused the machine to pump the smoke
: into the monkeys' masks for five minutes a
: day.
: we all know that six minutes without oxygen
: will kill a human and that five minutes
: without it will cause profound brain
: damage. not sure what the figures are for
: monkeys.
: i do know the truly braindead ones were the
: ones doing this study.
: a footnote on drug studies done on animals.
: think of the affects of PCP or ketamine on
: animals, and compare them with the same
: chemicals' effects on the human brain. if
: that doesn't convince you, nothing will.
