WOW . I wonder how the state of Washington figures into this.

We have what is considered to be one of the largest in the world underground indoor pot growing cottage industies. B.C. Canada may have the larger underground pot growing cottege industry although it is debateble which is truly the larger. There is no debate here who has the better product. The name 'beaster' describes BC import buds and is analagous to what was years ago known as Mexican Dirt Weed. No self respecting Washatonian admits to smoking the stuff!

We produce pot like California produces wine with both world class flavors and potencies. You want somthing sweet and energising to start your day? We got it. You want something else to wind down your day? We got it. You want to get so faded that you forget how to operate the remote control to your tv? We got that too. Cookies, candies, tinctures and even a Vapor Bar, you will find all here in the GREAT State of Washington.

Now that the State is figureing out how to regulate this industry the underground growers find themselves in transition. Prices here have DRAMATICALLY dropped as Green Cross shops appear everywhere almost as fast as Starbucks Coffee shops once appeared here a decade ago. (Are buxom bikini clad gals in pot leaf decorated kiosks far behind?)

So I wonder after reading this now bookmarked expose on our nations secret dance with the drug industry, where does Washington fit in.
