2008 FORUM TO OFFER LATEST ON MEDICAL CANNABIS

Sir,

Thanks for the series on medical cannabis (October
issue).

May I point out that the complete report on the use of therapeutic
cannabis you wrote about is properly titled, "Chronic Cannabis Use in
the Compassionate Investigational New Drug Program: An Examination of
Benefits and Adverse Effects of Legal Clinical Cannabis." (Russo,
Mathre, Byrne et al 2002)

The complete study may be found at www.medicalcannabis.com.

Patients Out of Time (Mr. (Gary) Storck is on our Board of Advisers)
is a 501c3 educational charity. We educate medical doctors and
registered nurses about the therapeutic applications of cannabis.

Our next forum is "The Fifth National Clinical Conference on Cannabis
Therapeutics" to be held April 4&5, 2008, near Monterey, CA.

The elected politicians who speak derisively of medical cannabis need
to understand that this accredited conference is co-sponsored by the
Medical School of the University of California-San Francisco and the
California Nurses Association. This accreditation process is approved
by the American Nurses Association and the American Medical
Association. Past conferences have been similarly supported. These are
hardly institutions that are being duped by that ever-present lurking
band of marijuana legalizers.

Please also note that "The Petition to Reschedule Cannabis" sits in
the Office of the Surgeon General of the U.S. awaiting signature. To
see the over fifty thousand pages of worldwide research on the
subject, information that does not seem to impress some of your less
than enlightened politically adept lawyers you folks call
Representatives, see www.drugscience.org which will provide you with
over 15 pages of references.

For those that want to watch and not read, at the video section of
www.google.com search "Patients Out of Time" and dozens of lectures
taken from this conference series are available to all. Cannabis and
pregnancy, cannabis and Neuroprotection, cannabis and nutrition,
cannabis and AIDS, and dozens more subjects are provided for your
state's education.

The efficacy of medical cannabis is not a myth. The myth is that folks
like Ms. L. Vukmir, RN, speak with authority.

Do some reading, watch a video, attend an accredited conference of
experts and watch the faulty, ignorant, opinions of Vukmir and others
disappear in volumes of peer-reviewed science.
