Why does weed affect your short term mem?

[seattle420]

Middle age, not marijuana, blamed for memory lapses, from the Rochester Democrat & Chronicle. Alcohol, on the other hand, *can* cause permanent memory loss. ... for these synapse lapses, say researchers who study memory and the human brain, and it has nothing to ...

maybe this post should have said "does weed affect your short term memory?"
instead it is posted as fact
wtf
heres the real question
why do people believe all the propaganda fed to them?
the answer is "because most are kept dumb by the government on purpose"
cant have the sheep too smart can they? btw go get another drink of flouride water and watch some tv.

the real question is, why do people instantly dispute all the negative propaganda they are fed and absorb all the positive?

GOOD POINT ! ... I had to quit smoking pot for a couple years, due to job, and after about 6 months, I 'felt' smarter, my memory improved 1000%, and kept improving ... seriously, my thinking processes really improved greatly... now, Im smoking heavily again, and feel slightly stupid when stoned ... of course, that won't be noticed in here ...

theres plenty of negative things going on in this world that are fact
also theres plenty of lies about cannabis designed to scare away people from it
all so some asshole can stuff his pockets with money
flouride in water will destroy your short term memory
they put it in public water supplies to keep the public dumb
so if you have a hard time with short term memory dont just blame cannabis
there could be other reasons also

one more thing
the way we are taught from birth to store memories is not the best way
look up Kevin Trudeau mega memory courses for example
if that were taught in schools and used in everyday life we would all be a hell of a lot smarter
a chinese 6 year old knows more than your average 12th grade American
different teaching methods can make a world of difference
