DEA WILL JUST IGNORE ANY SCHEDULE-CHANGE PROPOSALS
J.M. Smith has nothing to worry about regarding the move to take
cannabis out of Schedule 1 ("Locked Up," Medical MJ, Jan. 5).
If history is any prelude to the future, the petitions for
rescheduling cannabis will languish for years in the Drug Enforcement
Administration inbox. After lawsuits to force action and discussion,
and probably with dissent from the agency's administrative law judges,
the head of the DEA will deny the petition by fiat.
