what is the history of 420

[wannagethigh]

I'm certainly not a noob smoker and have been smoking for a few years. On the same day each year I wonder the same question. How come april 20th is the designated day for our "culture"? I would like to know the fact/story behind such a beautiful day.

Here's an article from the San Francisco Chronicle about it. http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/chronicle/archive/2000/04/20/MN101165.DTL.
