TALK TO GRANT KRIEGER

RE: Letter of the day from Wanda Johnson (Aug. 9). My sympathies to her on
her illness, but my frowns to her on her narrow-minded opinion:
"Personally, I think the patients who will benefit from marijuana if they
are gravely ill or in their final days..."

I suggest she talks to Grant Krieger or any of the thousands of people
marijuana has helped to reduce their suffering and improve their quality of
life, before she invokes the "Reefer Madness Syndrome." Just because she
didn't know what she was doing, was uninformed and had a bad experience.
