LETTER WAS SPOT ON ABOUT MARIJUANA EFFECTS

Thanks for publishing Stan White's thoughtful letter: "A more
rational view of a God-given plant" (March 15).

Some say that cannabis is no more dangerous than alcohol. I submit
that cannabis is not even remotely as dangerous as alcohol. If we
consume a 1.75-liter bottle of either whiskey, rum or vodka within an
hour, we will almost certainly die as a result.

On the other hand, if we consume the world's most potent cannabis, the
worst result would be a severe case of the munchies.
