Sue Blackmore is right to complain about our politicians' new standard soundbite on youthful drug use: it was wrong; I have learnt my lesson; drugs are wrong; and I did not particularly enjoy smoking cannabis. Based on a focus group of government ministers, the drug must be so tedious that it's difficult to see how dope dealers stay in business - except that some people must quite enjoy cannabis, otherwise it wouldn't be a £5bn industry and we wouldn't have to worry about banning it. The feeling seems to be that if you smoke cannabis, but don't like it, then you're somehow morally untainted by the experience. Please - if you eat bacon, but don't like it, it doesn't make y…

Hi all. Congrats on the new board I just recently purchased a book from amazon.com called Marijuana Myths, Marijuana Facts; A Review of the Scientific Evidence by Lynn Zimmer PH.D. and John P Morgan M.D. It's a fantastic read, with endorsements from many directions; Journal of the American Medical Association, British Medical Journal, Science magazine, and National Review just to name a few. I'd love to dump a copy in the lap of every politition in this country. It's quite depressing really, the overwhelming body of scientific evidence from the last 30 years leads to the conclusion that there is very little harm done by even moderate use. Prohibition is a ridiculous i…

Author: AAP Date: July 20, 2007 - 6:07AM Source: The Sydney Morning Herald Copyright: 2007, AAP "Cop price" analysis: 11.5kg = 25.35lbs. 25.35lbs for $100,000 = $3944/lb or $246/oz. For once an almost realistic "cop price" estimate- but ppl moving poundage like that are not likely to see that sort of money. Bulk rate of about ~$2K/lb sounds more likely.

Rest of the story can be found at: http://www.news.com.au/dailytelegraph/stor...5006003,00.html Hey... umm.... WTF IS GOING ON! Addicted to games? Addicted to internet? Ok, ok, before those authoritarian types out there begin getting their bits all wet about something new to ban... lets figure this one out. This is a world wide problem, its been around for a while now and there are doctors out there who do specialise in video game addiction. The question is, what will happen when we begin designing easily accessible virtual reality games, which lets be honest here... isn't too far away- they have already released ultra basic versions. Are psychedelics or borderline m…

PARIS — Teenagers see wine and spirits as "old France" and are increasingly turning to cannabis to let their hair down, according to a national study on its consumption. Jean-Michel Costes, head of the French drugs and addiction watchdog, OFDT*, said yesterday that French cannabis use has soared in the past 15 years and is now almost on a par with Britain. While the French drink half the amount they did in the 1960s, cannabis consumption among the 18–35 year olds has more than tripled since the early 1990s, the report found. France is now just behind Britain, Spain, Switzerland, and Europe's heaviest cannabis users, the Czech Republic. "There is a big cultural dif…

Breaking News - Canadian Marijuana laws declared unconstitutional http://www.cbc.ca/canada/story/2007/07/13/pot-toronto.html Lightening struck twice for Lawyer Brian McAllister of Ontario, Canada. This is the second time that McAllister has succeeding in convincing a judge to declare Canadian pot laws unconstitutional. The last time he succeeded all pot charges were quietly dismissed over an entire summer by the Canadian government, until a collateral attack by another case was used by the courts as an excuse to resurrect a dead law. Michele Kubby argued before the BC Supreme Court that you cannot resurrect a dead law and that you cannot use a collateral attack to gut…

But while it's in the public spotlight at the moment we should strike while the iron is hot. C'mon M8'S less talk more action. ;-) N

Another story from www.news.com.au/sundaytelegraph http://www.news.com.au/sundaytelegraph/sto...5001021,00.html Not really much of a story. Two people photographed smoking a jay. However you can comment. THERE IS ALSO A POLL ON LEGALISING CANNABIS AT THE TELEGRAPH. WE WILL LOSE IT BUT PLEASE VOTE ANYWAY. There is also a blog at the smh.com.au about politicians, pot and hypocrisy if you'd like to comment. The intro is a bit long to post. It seems a little can of worms has been opened by Daniel Johns, if nothing else. http://blogs.smh.com.au/newsblog/archives/...ght/014551.html

6OZ Stoners: Charting the Rise of Australia's Premier Cannabis Community
Greetings, Stoners! The rich narrative of the Australian cannabis community, with OZ Stoners standing tall at its helm, is a blend of trials, tribulations, heartening comebacks, and the unwavering dedication of its members. Let’s delve deep into this riveting tale.
Geocities: The Digital Genesis
In the bustling digital streets of the late '90s, Yahoo Geocities stood out as a haven for burgeoning online communities. It was here, amidst this digital renaissance, that OZ Stoners planted its foundational roots. This marked the dawn of a space that would go on to become synonymous with Australian cannabis culture.
Navigating the Digital Tempests
On its journey, OZ Stoners faced formidable challenges. Between Yahoo's unpredictability and the unexpected anti-cannabis stance of titans like Meta, steering the ship required a blend of adaptability, tenacity, and foresight.
A Hiatus and the Phoenix's Ascent
Come 2022, OZ Stoners entered a period of unplanned dormancy, lasting a challenging 12 months. But, reminiscent of the legendary phoenix, this hiatus was transformed into an opportunity for rebirth. The platform underwent comprehensive upgrades, server enhancements, and a revitalising overhaul. As it emerged, it did so with a phoenix-like rise, soaring higher and brighter, dedicated to serving the community with even more zeal and purpose.
Ode to the Trailblazers
The tapestry of OZ Stoners is woven with the dedication and vision of its founding members. Their relentless drive and contributions have been the bedrock of its success. While many of these pioneers continue to shape its direction, we pause to honor those trailblazers we've lost over time. Their indomitable spirit continues to inspire and resonate within the cannabis community. - Memorial Hall
The Lighthouse of Today and Promise of Tomorrow
OZ Stoners, in the contemporary digital landscape, stands as a lighthouse for the Australian cannabis community. Beyond being a forum, it exemplifies adaptability, unity, and a shared passion. As it anchors and shapes cannabis discourse Down Under, it continually underscores the strength and beauty of collective endeavor.
As you engage with OZ Stoners, remember the sweat, tears, and dreams that built its legacy. Here’s to the cannabis community, the trailblazers of the past, and the promising horizons of the future. Cheers to shared stories and monumental growth ahead!
