...considering Illinois with its 'Industrial' persona, is most likely "Hazardous To Your Health". I'd do it myself at 67 if I didn't have everything I need EXCEPT permission from the man.

Here in Canada I could 'discuss it with docs' but I'd have to make up some kind ailment that the clueless medical community thinks is treatable with one drug or another. That's hardly an option because it would put me in the position of denying the positive medical effects of almost 50 years of ILLEGAL cannabis use.

I think it's great that the USA is having its consciousness raised and that there are doctors in Canada who will at least listen to the arguments, but for now I'll stick with the illegal. I don't have anybody I need to convince of its value.

Tell your doc to ask me anything.
