Gasoline needs another substance to burst into a flame. A psychoactive drug cannot create addiction. It needs a dysfunctional brain. Since most people think we can prohibit the manufacture, possession, and sale of drug and stop addiction. The we should prohibit drilling, possession, and sale of gasoline and we will reduce the number of deaths from gasoline fires.

End Marijuana Prohibition
End marijuana prohibition and aid the shrinking economy the same as ending alcohol prohibition did in 1933. End the promotion of unsubstantiated social problems and the unsuccessful efforts to control with our prohibition laws. Use this money to rebuild our economy and tax those who wish to profit from marketing of this product.
Go here and tell our new government what you think.

My name is on this list. I told him I wanted to remain anonymous. He didn’t pay attention to me. If proof is needed you my contact me at my beach house, just 3 miles east of Possum Trot, KY. I wonder if that puts me on the “No Fly List”. Page 359

Go “Green”
Are you interested in sustainable living, but don’t know where to start? You’re not alone. A recent survey showed 62% of respondents answered “I don’t know where to start” when asked why they didn’t feel they’d done enough to address their environmental impact.
Over three home visits, Eco-Guides will help homeowners with where to start, by assessing a homeowner’s impact, informing them of sustainable choices and helping them to implement change. “From our efforts to ‘green’ our own homes, we found that there was a lot of information on sustainability, from many different sources and it was often difficult to determine what applied to a particular home based on its age, its occupants and their lifestyle.” says Lisa Ard, Owner.
Some of the ways Eco-Guides make it simple to go “green”:
• Offering researched recommendations that are specific to their clients’ and their homes
• Providing an Eco-Guidebook
• Offering environmentally-friendly products and service referrals
Eco-Guides’ five areas of focus include: energy efficiency, water conservation, green gardening, waste reduction and toxics elimination. “Through our partnerships with local agencies, water bureaus, and service companies, we are helping to spread the message of living sustainable,” says Lisa Ard.

Drug War Cause and Effect
Prohibition laws include prohibiting the cultivating, manufacturing, sales and possession of a substance. In the case of drugs laws, substances that have the potential to addict. Substances put on the prohibited list are put there by the folks that enforce the prohibition laws. Now the lawmakers are safe from the public.
Most everyone believes psychoactive substances cause addiction. From my experience, I do not believe psychoactive drugs cause addiction no more than gasoline causes a fire. Gasoline needs a flame or spark to explode into a fast burning fire. The flame or spark can create a fire without the gasoline. Put that same scenario to psychoactive substances, then our prohibition laws are about as valuable as tits on a boar hog.
The increase in addiction as the effort to enforce these prohibition laws increases gives evidence that my theory is correct.
The addicted has a “flame on the brain”, he/she believes some psychoactive drug delivered in some form will put out the fire on the brain. They, “most likely”, will not break any laws other than prohibition laws, hence, the drug war is a war on the mentally ill.

Eco-Guides guide homeowners on the path to sustainability
A new home consulting service in the Portland area aims to reduce homeowners’ environmental footprint one home at a time. Through a series of home visits, Eco-Guides will assess a homeowner’s impact, inform them of sustainable choices and help them to implement changes. Eco-Guides’ five areas of focus include: energy efficiency, water conservation, green gardening, waste reduction and toxics elimination.
“From our efforts to ‘green’ our own homes, we found that there was a lot of information on sustainability, from many different sources and it was often difficult to determine what applied to a particular home based on its age, its occupants and their lifestyle. We aim to make it simple for homeowners to do the right thing for the environment. In addition we show our homeowners the impact they’re having and what they can achieve in terms of dollars saved, gallons of water conserved, waste reduced, etc.,” says Lisa Ard, Owner of Eco-Guides.
Some of the ways Eco-Guides make it simple to go “green”:
• “We do the research and deliver the recommendations that will work for our homeowners”, says Laura Baldschun, Owner of Eco-Guides
• Eco-Guides delivers their expertise over three home visits, so a homeowner isn’t overwhelmed with information
• They provide an Eco-Guidebook full of checklists, additional reading, helpful brochures, rebate information, etc.
• Eco-Guides offers environmentally-friendly products and service referrals
• “We remain an ongoing resource for our homeowners long after the home visits. For instance, a year after our consultation a homeowner may have their dishwasher go out; we’d like to help them easily select an energy- and water-efficient dishwasher plus take advantage of any rebates or incentives”, says Lisa Ard.
Eco-Guides partners with local agencies, water bureaus, and service companies to help spread the message of living sustainably.
