1. The Hipforums announces it first ever fundraiser. After nearly 30 years online, we must ask our members and guests to help support the website. Thanks to years of ongoing financial support of our members, advertisers and volunteer admin staff, we have been able to keep the forums alive.

    Now we must ask for help as available funds have all been used for our Internet server and other fees.

    So please donate any amount to our PayPal account donate@Hipforum.com to keep the site going. If we can get enough for a few months fees, we won't need to nag you again!

    You could also subscribe to the forums and get an upgrade to Supporter or Lifetime Supporter here

    You can dismiss this message by clicking on the X in the upper right corner.

    Thanks! The Hipforums Staff

    Yeah Kittyfabulous, that was good news. They did lower the amount from four ounces to one ounce, but hey this is much better.
    No doubt. We do have our own meth problems here as well. I was quite indignant when some Republican senator from Anchorage was quoted on the front page of the Fairbanks paper saying, "I don't care if they're high on meth or stoned on pot it's all the same to me." This is total misinformation. To compare my wife and I and other stoners to meth heads is ridiculous and insulting. I don't know any meth heads that keep jobs and sucessfully home school their kids.

    What's sickening is that people don't see marijuana any differently as other illegal drugs. It's like comparing caffeine to hard alcohol ten times over.

    I think, medically, if you compared either caffiene or hard alcohol with pot, pot would win for toxicity. You can't fatally OD on pot. You can on both caffiene and alcohol.
