anyone who is wondering about the effect of smoking pot are should go to the DEP drug education project.......pot doesn't even kill brain cells so it will not kil you....we have THC receptors in our brains we are born with them and when we we smoke our alpha waves actually increase which in turn causes the body to relax.......there is NO neurochemical changes in the brain....i am not saying that pot has no down side because you can get lung cancer....unless ofcourse you vaporize....but then again if you do the research most of us will die of one form of cancer or another....for more info go to the Schafer Libary of Drug Policy.......they have all the info, tests, studies, and facts
