Editor's Note: Large section of this column edited out as it was irrelevant to the drug war Related: http://www.mapinc.org/drugnews/v00/n883/a09.html, http://www.mapinc.org/drugnews/v00/n914/a10.html MEDICAL-POT COLUMN NO HIT Feedback. My column on the medical use of marijuana triggered a flood of letters, almost all of them critical. Those published in Sunday's Commentary section summarized the tone of most of the e-mail I received. Some readers wanted to know my source of information on tumor growth, tar contained in marijuana cigarettes, immune suppressors and risk of heart attack. The source is Steven Dubinett, head of the Jonsson Cancer Center at the University of California at Los Angeles. He was quoted on these issues by reporter Andre Picard in the Toronto Globe and Mail.
