Pubdate: Sat, 08 Apr 2000 Date: 04/08/2000 Source: Honolulu Advertiser (HI) Author: Doug Arnott As a 59 year old businessman with a thriving business and a career of successful employment back to my teens, I enjoyed an occasional joint back in the '60s and '70s & never at any time did it threaten addiction nor tempt me toward harder drugs. In fact, quite the opposite, the grass available was so good, much of it home grown by friends, that there was no temptation to try anything else.
