Would this qualify for Medical Marijuana consideration?

Hmmm, I'm talking to a guy from NORML @ Virginia Tech, right now.

He first asked me, "Why would you lose Virginia?"

I read this again and I'm thinking, "because I have friends inviting me to move out West!"

A small sample from a letter that he sent me.

If you want you can always email LEAP. But in a way you are talking
with LEAP right now as I am their international liason. I am one
of the few non-police volunteers to be considered a special assistant
to LEAP.

You people are good friends. I learned this all from you.

This is the way I remember reading about it:
Something happened in the late 70's, in regards to a law of some sort, that made it possible for doctor's to prescribe medical marijuana. In the late 90's, the State realized that this law was in place and changed it.

I doubt that I was misinformed.

move to an enlightened state and get legal!

I was told to stay put. I like how you worded it, though. "Enlightened" state.
