      XPost: alt.drugs.pot, alt.drugs.pot.hydro, alt.support.marijuana.medical       From: overthecounterviagra@earthlink.net              All recreational users should join the "Johnny Pot seed movement" and       save their seeds and begin       seeding wild areas and wetlands              If the stuff spreads like wildfire, what are they going to do??              The other thing is get some very smart dutch growers together and       develop a cold resistant strain of smoke and then       cross it with a prolific seed maker and then blend in the potent white       sticky leaf stuff =-O              IAW, develop a good strain that can just grow wild without a lot of help              Send the seeds into the jet stream with small rockets and disburse them       worldwide by the ton's       After a few years, MJ will be as common as hay and guess what?              Nothing the Government can do       Seed and grow their ass into submission              Every time you get a chance throw your seeds out the window or in a       creek or off a bridge       or in a swamp and forget about it.              Those undiscovered plants will make seed and their offspring will make       seed and on it goes       Birds will eat them and shit them out and some will flow downstream and       grow etc              It can be done if enough do it              It would not be the first time a non native plant took over and spread       through America       Look at Kudzu in the South as an example       It did not even exist until the 1930's and now it is as common as dirt       Hell each State would have a different taste and potency based on the       temperature and the dirt in that area              The grow movement is the only way       Let Nature beat the "Guvment" into submission                            brian bennett wrote:              >Bud Burner wrote:       >       >       >> I think the best way to achieve any meaningful degree of       >>success in legitimizing cannabis is thru the present medical mj       >>process.
