Thanks to Fredamae for the idea and a start to the articles and SHRED for this thing of beauty, which I have stolen: http://www.democraticunderground.com/10025303974 . At some point I will come back and try and put a description on each of these links, but...not going to lie, it may be a while.

1. That's an impressive array of links

thanks for assembling it.

6. wouldn't beer be a gateway drug?

Most have a sip of alcohol before anything else.

In case you missed any.

3. Denver crime rates 2013-2014

These are the only relevant CO statistics I could find. They were put out by Denver city gov't as part of a general report & not by any pro-or anti-pot group.

I will let them speak for themselves. If it is of sufficient interest, it would be easy but time-consuming to determine which of the changes are statistically significance (a series of simple proportion tests, one for each comparison, would do it).

8. DNA of burnt cannabis and frankincense found on ancient Hebrew altar.
