 * I will try to do the ref/Note templates. We should have some more references and perhaps, should try to introduce some slang terms for this, if possible. Zscout370 (Sound Off) 29 June 2005 19:09 (UTC)
 * The lead could also be expanded. Zscout370 (Sound Off) 29 June 2005 19:11 (UTC)

There is some amateurish and tendentious stuff in the section on long term effects that ought to be removed. For example, that specious analogy about inferring causation from use of cannabis for glaucoma and aids is so simplistic or intellectually dishonest as to actually suggests some adverse effects of intellectual function (like an impaired high schooler's defense of his pot smoking). Second, psychiatry does not reject "the validiity of spiritual experience" or equate it with psychosis. A psychiatrist's diagnosis and definition of psychosis is based on other criteria entirely. Did Tom Cruise drop by to contribute his opinion? This is a long way from featured article quality! alteripse 8 July 2005 11:33 (UTC) OK, I made the changes I suggested. Much else in the article seems good. alteripse 8 July 2005 22:06 (UTC)
