Curious, how did you happen to come across an article from July 11, 2007 when todays date is July 10, 2001. Is this from 'The Onion'?
Is this along the lines of the guy who was growing a marijuana plant in his backyard, who recieved a call from the police who stated that if he brought the plant down to the police station they would not arrest him? Later as the man brings the plant into the station the astonished police officers arressted him. He later found out the call to his houses was a prank call by one of his friends. cheers, c.

Date: Tue, 10 Jul 2001 19:33:59 -0400 July 11th, 2007 The Republican Democrat Leader Washington, DC The United States Department of Justice, at the behest of the US Dept. of Agriculture, initiated an amnesty program today for all black market smokeable cannabis growers while concurrently issuing a bounty of $10.00 for every viable cannabis seed and seedling capable of withstanding the widespread drought conditions that continue to develop, apparently as a result of global warming trends. Although the USDA still does not officially acknowledge global warming as an existing man-induced phenomena, it has acknowledged the need to broaden the range of drought tolerant crops in order to combat food and fiber shortages as a result of persistent crop failures due to "precipitation impoverishment." An unnamed USDA official noted that the same property of cannabis which provides the psychotropic element also serves as the plant's sunscreen - the higher the psychotropic properties, the greater the drought tolerance. Unconfirmed reports also suggest that the agricultural extension offices throughout the country are to be enlisted, as are agrarian departments of state and private colleges to assist with expedited greenhouse cloning programs in order to obtain a seed crop for next year's planting season. Failure to produce such a seed crop in record time will result in what is anticipated to be an enormous fiber shortage next fall, forcing textile manufacturers to dedicate almost all textiles to northern latitudes in preparation for winter. J. Pew, Clevin Kind and The Flap have already revealed their 2008 "Tropica" lines, dedicated primarily to a re-used, hand-me-down, second hand and "worn 'till it falls off" look. Jennie Calcutta, spokesperson for The Flap, said "This is wonderful. Now we are able to pay our sweatshop employees to not work. Each day they come in with their tattered clothes and we buy them off their backs. At pennies a pound purchase price and only a penny or two more to wash and package, we're going to rake." ................ Stranger things have happened.....
