At the time when my sister was smoking to alleviate the chemo symptoms, I toked with her. I'd quit my corporate job but hadn't yet started medical school. Then I quit when school started. Bess no longer felt like smoking anyway, and I signed an ethics agreement upon entering school saying I wouldn't do anything illegal. I used to be a devoted toker back when I was in college, but that was eons ago.

Anyway, I liked the site a lot. Liked a lot of the people. I feel it's important for smart, pro-cannabis people to hang out here, too, even if we're not active smokers. We help advance the cause, too, in some ways perhaps even more effectively than folks who're heavily invested in using it, because we have a certain degree of objectivity, I think. It was incredible how helpful cannabis was for my sister. Because of that and what I've learned here, I'll be a lifelong cannabis advocate, and after I've retired from medicine--or before that, if the great day comes when it's made legal--I'll be a devoted smoker or vape user at the first opportunity. Sorry for the long answer!
