HIGH POINT

I'm glad Ed Thompson supports marijuana decriminalization (Why Not Ed? 
9/7/01). It reminds me of how a pot legalization and decriminalization 
referendum I backed with Ald. Roney Sorensen passed in Madison in the same 
election that made Jimmy Carter president in 1976. At that time, I was a 
Dane County supervisor, and that was the high point of my political career! 
God must like pot, since the ancient Jews supposedly used it in the 
Jerusalem temple for incense.
