Legal marijuana goes on sale tomorrow in CO. In 1968 my required business communication class at UT Austin had as a topic, Will Marijuana Be Legalized Soon Enough to Consider Cultivation? This one professor did not get his contract renewed and so felt able to shall we say stray from the topic the rest of the classes had, which was about some regular drug being adopted in the marketplace. This allowed us to discuss marijuana and its various uses for the remainder of the semester. Guest speakers included Madam Hipple, a local psychic as well as a Doctor from the Student Health Center.
All the other classes had odious strict rules on the paper presentation. Dr. Beard simply told us to write it so he could read it. He rode a three wheeled Harley ex police bike he bought at a city acution. I was as bit stunned to discover I was one of the few in my circle or on campus that was NOT already familiar with the product and its uses.
Turns out it only took 46 years to happen. But I wonder just what the demand will be at an indicated $225 an ounce.
