True, its a Harvard study.... what do they know ?
And for the record, I can think of at least 5 guys off the top of my head, all have been smoking for 40 YEARS or more, no cancer. Its BS. I aint gunna buy into that one, sorry. You have nothing to risk, my doctor is risking his license to practice medecine by prescribing me this stuff. I will take his word over yours, or some online source, no offense.
Science at its best
"Since we know that the incidence of testicular cancer has been rising in our country and in Europe over the last 40 years and that marijuana use has also risen over the same time, it seemed logical that there might be an association between the two,"
They used to tell you your sperm count would drop.
As well, previous human and animal research has indicated that marijuana use might lead to reduced hormonal production (particularly testosterone), poorer semen quality and impotency in men.
How about our founding fathers ??
How about Bill Gates ??
Queen Elizabeth ?
Micheal Phelps ?
Johnny Carson ?
Pablo Picasso ?
Sarah Palin ?
Who are you to judge if these people are "good company" or not ? And what makes you think these people are so horrible ? How many have you met ? And how many years did you live alongside them ?
Maybe good company can be changed to accomplished persons. Since all have done FAR more then 99% of us here. Including me.
Judge how you want to, but compare them to yourself. What have you done ? When you die, 40 years from now, how many people will remember you ? Not trying to be an ***, I just think its funny seeing people judge others so harshly. A lot of these people listed, have done a lot of good. Not 100% of them, but some. The list is to show how many different "stoners" there are out there. not all are the stereotype "burnout" who talks slow and funny, and can't remember anything.

Jeeze, with standards like yours why do you hang around here???
So you guys don't consider our founding fathers, successful businessmen, musicians, actors, authors, composers, political leaders good enough company?
I'm curious as to who actually meets your exceedingly high standards for "good company"?

I always felt that it was not how many people who remembered you, but who remembered you, and how strongly they felt about you---hey man---you put yours in quantity, I will take quality, any day...TSC

Undescended *********.
Family History.
HIV Infection.
CIS (carcinoma in situ): CIS is a condition in which germ cells do not grow normally, but do not form a tumor or cause symptoms. It isn't clear how often CIS in the ********* becomes cancer.
Cancer of the Other ********.
Age: Nine out of 10 cases of testicular cancers occur in men between the ages of 20 and 54. But this cancer can affect males of any age, including infants and elderly men
Race and Ethnicity: White American men are about 5 times more likely to get testicular cancer than are African-American men. Whites have more than 3 times the risk of Asian-American and American Indian men.
Body Size: Some studies have that the risk of testicular cancer is somewhat higher in tall men but other studies have not shown a link.

I think our problem here is that you see the good people in the list and I see the people that I have no respect for, (see Madonna).
And 60% of the people on that list will be remembered because they did something famous not because they have done something so great for society.(entertainers). I'm not going to base my worth on how many people remember me when I'm gone.
By the way I don't care if people smoke......I wan't trying to be as harsh as you took it.

Daling and her team explored the notion of a marijuana-testicular cancer connection by analyzing data on 369 testicular cancer patients that had been collected by the Adult Testicular Cancer Lifestyle and Blood Specimen Study

What if it does? What if this finding is---heaven help us---correct? Some of you folks sound like the overly defensive cigarette smokers---"Yep, I know guys that have smoked doobies three time a day for 40 years---and they are not dead yet..."
Hey, for what it its worth, my grandma smoked cigs (Camels or Lucky Strikes!)for 68 years---she died when she was 84---and yep---she beat the odds on that,too, right. But, that doesn't mean I have to try to beat those odds, either, right?

Jeezsh. MT take a toke and chill! I think your taking me too seriously!
I think our problem here is that you see the good people in the list and I see the people that I have no respect for, (see Madonna).

Yep that's me when I smoke.

Just so we are clear, I am not "upset" worked up, or anything other then my normal ole self. This is something I can talk at great lengths at, but only have "x" amount of time to BS around online. So I type fast, and edit often. I also don't just argue with you. Remember, you don't win any arguement by convincing the other person your right, you simply convince more people around you !
Sorry if I come off as "crazy" . I know I sound like a nut, but c'mon, I'm a stoner !!! I gotta be chill and laid back !!
And its not that I see the "good" its that i see a mix. Everyone says "stoners" do nothing, are lazy, a drag, blah blah blah. Its not true. Showing a wide range of names that the average person knows, puts it in some perspective.
