It is too early to opine about recreational marijuana, but the auguries are not unmixed. I hope (and expect that) Vermont has learned from other states' mistakes. There are things to be said for not going off half-cocked. I hope they did not legalize concentrates--those can be very dangerous.<br /><br />AlanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15940389.post-17032219345752449422018-01-10T20:40:39.047-05:002018-01-10T20:40:39.047-05:00I believe it was Catreona who mentioned the book, ...I believe it was Catreona who mentioned the book, Alan.<br /><br />I am not planning to read this one.
