POTENCY MATH
Re: Linda Williamson's column: "Why I'm not high on legalizing pot" and the
comment under a letter to the editor stating "that the number in her column
was a typo, it should have read 2,500%." Even then, it's still very wrong.
I suggest you look up the word "lie" in the dictionary, as it describes
your "typo" more accurately. Let's assume that three grams of pot have a 6%
THC content of 0.18 g. Now multiply that by 2,500% and arrive at the
impossible number of 4.5 g. I only pray that your readership has a better
education than Linda Williamson.
