[vermillion]

well im a young little stoner, and i was just wondering about some of the history of mary j. share some important events, like when it became illegal, when it was becoming more popularly used, who was the first civilization, whatever u feel is important to pass down.

It is all written in a book titled The Emperor Wears No Clothes by Jack Herer.
All available free over the internet: www.jackherer.com/chapters.html

Everyone interested should read at least a few chapters of this book, you'll be astounded.

I knew it was useful but I never realised it was that useful. I think most stoners in general only see cannabis as something to smoke instead of as a great natural resource.
