Well, we'll see whether the universe will out-last my G3/266 :). Besides, "rolling my own" sounds slightly rebellious, and, given that pot's being decriminalised here in Canada perhaps I ought to give it a try (how strange a situation a situation for our neighbours to the south if they happen to live near the border... in minutes they could be in a country where, if they're gay they could marry at will & receive all the rights and responsibilities that accrue to the married, or smoke pot without fear of persecution and prosecution or both). Ah well, c'est la vie. Time and pot will mellow attitudes ;-P.
