Wrong. there are mostly other factors involved in that case. A single case doesn't make a real argument, expect to that person. I'll have to dig up the reference, but there has been research looking at the cognitive impact of smoking weed over the long term. The researchers compared 2 samples in Jamaica, those who smoked weed regularly on a daily basis for at least 20 years, and those who did not touch the stuff. The two groups were matched on age, gender, SES, work status and general health. In terms of a variety of cognitive performance measures there were no differences in the two groups. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
